The first day of the two-day Pro Kabaddi League (PKL) 2025 players auction concluded in Mumbai on Saturday, May 31. Players from Categories A and B went under the hammer today, with all-rounder Mohammadreza Shadloui Chiyaneh becoming the most expensive player of the season after being bought by Gujarat Giants for ₹2.23 crore. Season 11’s best raider, Devank Dalal, became the second-most expensive player after joining Bengal Warriors for ₹2.205 crore.
A total of 10 players crossed the ₹1 crore mark—an all-time high for PKL—surpassing the eight players who did so in the PKL 2024 auction.
In a surprising turn of events, the league's most successful raider and star player Pawan Sehrawat’s services were acquired by Tamil Thalaivas for only ₹59.5 lakh.
Shail Gula and Pardeep Narwal were the only two players who failed to attract any buyers on Day 1 of the PKL 2025 auction.
