The Indian Street Premier League (ISPL) Season 2 auction delivered high-octane drama as six franchises fought tooth and nail to build formidable squads for the upcoming season. Held in Mumbai, the mega auction showcased the league’s growing allure, with 350 players from 55 cities vying for a spot. After hours of intense bidding, 96 players found new homes, with the franchises collectively spending over Rs 5.54 crore.
Dalhor breaks records, Yasir makes history
In a standout moment, Abhishek Kumar Dalhor emerged as the most expensive player in ISPL history. Majhi Mumbai, owned by Amitabh Bachchan, clinched Dalhor for an eye-popping Rs 20.50 lakh, starting from a modest base price of Rs 3 lakh. Meanwhile, history was made as 15-year-old Sharik Yasir became the youngest player in the auction. The prodigious talent was snapped up by Akshay Kumar-owned Srinagar Ke Veer for Rs 3 lakh, marking a milestone for the burgeoning league.
Icon players add star power to squads
The auction introduced new dynamics with the Right-to-Match (RTM) and Icon Player rules. Each team was allowed to retain two players from last season and add one Icon Player to their roster.
- Majhi Mumbai: Vijay Jaysing (Rs 13.75 lakh)
- KVN Bangalore Strikers: Saroj Paramanik (Rs 16.25 lakh)
- Falcon Risers Hyderabad: Krishna Satpute (Rs 8.50 lakh)
- Chennai Singams: Deepak Dogra (Rs 6 lakh)

These players will bring their experience and star quality to their respective teams, further elevating the league’s competitive edge.
