The upcoming IPL 2026 auction in Abu Dhabi on December 16 will feature over 200 uncapped Indian players vying for contracts with the 10 IPL teams. While the focus is often on high-profile capped Indian and overseas players, several uncapped talents are also expected to attract significant interest and secure lucrative deals.
Yash Dhull, who previously played for Delhi Capitals, is one such player who is likely to find a new team this year after impressing in domestic cricket. Auqib Nabi from Jammu & Kashmir, Abhinav Manohar from Karnataka, and Eden Apple Tom from Kerala are other promising uncapped players to watch out for.
Vignesh Puthur, known for his spin bowling skills, made a mark with Mumbai Indians in IPL 2025 and is expected to draw attention from multiple franchises. Rajvardhan Hangargekar, a fast-bowling all-rounder who has featured for CSK and LSG, is another uncapped player with potential.
Simarjeet Singh, Anmolpreet Singh, Akash Madhwal, and Kartik Sharma are also among the uncapped players hoping to make a statement in the IPL 2026 auction. With teams allowed to sign a maximum of 77 players, the auction promises to be a platform for these talented individuals to showcase their skills and land significant contracts in one of the most prestigious T20 leagues in the world.
