The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 mini auction will take place on December 16 in Abu Dhabi. The main talking point of the event has been Cameron Green. The Australian all-rounder has always attracted the IPL franchises, having previously raked in INR 17.50 crore.
However, this time around, he might just break all records. It’s much like how teams went ballistic for Rishabh Pant and Shreyas Iyer last year. Green is a one-of-a-kind player, much like Hardik Pandya. There isn’t any replacement for him.
Cameron Green sold to Chennai in Ashwin’s mock auction
Ravichandran Ashwin, who retired from IPL earlier in the year, has organised a mock auction days before the official one happens. Shockingly, Green didn’t break any records there. Kolkata, who’ll enter the auction with INR 64.30 crore, didn’t end up buying him.
Although Green’s base price is INR 2 crore, in Ashwin’s auction, the bid began with INR 10 crore as Delhi lifted the paddle. Lucknow joined in. Delhi bid up to INR 14.25 crore before failing to continue due to budgetary constraints. Soon Chennai joined the race as well. Lucknow also left due to low budget and Kolkata finally jumped in.

— TheXReplier (@ReplySensei) December 12, 2025As expected, Kolkata and Chennai started to battle it out as the two teams with the largest purse. However, it ended earlier than you’d think. Kolkata shelved their interest in Green after Chennai placed a bid worth INR 21 crore. Letting their potential Andre Russell replacement go.
It’ll be fascinating to see which of Chennai or Kolkata gets Green on December 16. One would assume Kolkata, due to a much larger purse, will end up buying him, but stranger things have happened at the IPL auctions in the past.
