The BCCI has added nine new players to the IPL 2026 auction list, taking the total number of players to 359. Earlier, the board had released a list of 350 names from over 1300 registrations. The new additions include IPL winner Swastik Chikara and Malaysia’s Virandeep Singh, the only Associate-nation player in the pool. Other names are Manisankar Murasingh, Chama Milind, K.L. Shrijith, Ethan Bosch, Chris Green, Rahul Raj Namala and Virat Singh. Out of 359 players, only 77 will get contracts. BCCI also corrected an error after listing BBL-contracted Nikhil Chaudhury as an Indian instead of an overseas player. (PC: BCCI)
