The stage is set for the IPL 2026 Mini Auction, While the "Mini" tag suggests small tweaks, the stakes remain massive as 10 franchises battle to fill just 77 available slots (31 overseas) with a combined purse of Rs 237.55 crore. Kolkata Knight Riders lead the hunt with a massive Rs 64.3 crore war chest, while Mumbai Indians must be thrifty with just Rs 2.75 crore. With no Right-to-Match (RTM) cards and a new salary cap for overseas stars, expect some smart buys. Let the bidding begin!
