  Pant poised for mega payday at IPL auction
  Rishabh Pant is set to be the highlight of the IPL mega auction starting Sunday, with his name expected to spark a bidding war reminiscent of his audacious no-look six at Perth. Among the 577 players going under the hammer, Pant seems poised to become the highest-paid player, with franchises gearing up to break the bank for his signature.
 
10 teams, Rs 641.5 crore, and 204 slots up for grabs
   The 10 franchises will collectively wield Rs 641.5 crore, aiming to fill 204 slots. Punjab Kings, with the largest purse of Rs 110.50 crore, are favourites to lead the charge for Pant. Meanwhile, Royal Challengers Bengaluru (Rs 83 crore) and Delhi Capitals (Rs 73 crore) are also expected to be serious contenders. Delhi holds a Right to Match (RTM) card, but Pant’s strained ties with the franchise may deter them. Pant’s recent comment, “My retention wasn’t about money for sure,” hints at a reluctant reunion.
 
Pant’s big question: Breaching the Rs 25 crore mark
   Can Pant become the first Indian to surpass Rs 25 crore in an IPL auction? Much depends on how franchises strategise their team composition. Mumbai Indians and Chennai Super Kings, with only Rs 45 crore each, may not have the budget to pursue him. In contrast, Punjab Kings, under coach Ricky Ponting’s guidance, are reportedly saving their entire purse to secure the star keeper-batter. 
 
Arshdeep Singh: A surprise contender for big bucks
  While Pant is the centre of attention, Arshdeep Singh could also spark a bidding frenzy. With an impressive 96 T20 International wickets across three seasons, the young pacer could command a price north of Rs 20 crore. Punjab Kings may consider using their RTM card for him, but the competition is expected to be fierce.
 
Fast bowlers in high demand
   Fast bowlers, both Indian and overseas, are set to dominate the auction. Batters, on the other hand, may see less excitement, as most marquee Indian players—except for Pant, Shreyas Iyer, and KL Rahul—are already retained. These three are also prime candidates for captaincy roles, with franchises like RCB, Kolkata Knight Riders, Lucknow Super Giants, and Punjab Kings seeking leaders.
 
Ishan Kishan, Mohammed Shami among intriguing options
  Ishan Kishan, known for his explosive batting, is another name to watch, though Mumbai Indians may not afford to replicate their previous Rs 15.25 crore bid. Mohammed Shami, currently playing the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, also enters the auction amid mixed predictions. Pundits like Sanjay Manjrekar suggest a lukewarm response, but Shami's performance could challenge such assumptions.
 
Pant’s auction could set new benchmarks
   As teams scramble to craft the perfect combination, Pant’s name could redefine IPL auction records. Whether he breaches the Rs 25 crore mark or falls short, the two-day event promises to showcase the high-stakes drama that IPL auctions are known for.
