IPL 2026 Target Players: Complete List of All Teams Ahead of Auction

The IPL 2026 auction is just around the corner, and every team is planning its strategy carefully. This article covers the IPL 2026 target players

IPL 2026 Chennai Super Kings target players

The IPL 2026 Auction is set to take place on 16th December in Abu Dhabi. Ahead of the auction, the target players for all the teams have been revealed. This article provides a detailed look at which players each IPL team is focusing on for the upcoming season.

Chennai Super Kings Target Players

Chennai Super Kings will have the second-highest purse in this auction, approximately 44 crores. The team is targeting key players including Ravi Vishnu, Rahul Chahar, Glenn Maxwell, Livingston, Mohit Sharma, Aakash Madhaval, Faizal Akhfaroor, and Fab Duplassis.

Chennai is likely to select one of the four spinners, choose between Maxwell and Livingston, and pick either Mohit Sharma or Aakash Madhaval. Fab Duplassis and Faizal Akhfaroor are also expected to be signed.

Sunrisers Hyderabad Target Players

Sunrisers Hyderabad is focusing on players like Mohit Sharma, Aakash Deep Singh, Shyamar Joseph, Ravi Vishnu, Patil Rana, and Vijay Shankar. The team will aim to secure Mohit Sharma and Aakash Deep, depending on budget constraints. Shyamar Joseph could attract the highest bids, and the decision to buy Patil Rana will depend on the auction. Ravi Vishnu is also a potential pick, especially if the team needs spinners after releasing Zampa.

Lucknow Supergiants Target Players

Lucknow Supergiants have limited budget and purse options. Their primary targets are Andhra Prasad, Rahul Chahar, and Simarjit Singh. If Prasad's bid is too high, the team may look for alternatives. Nicholas and Prasad remain strong options depending on auction conditions.

Delhi Capitals Target Players

Delhi Capitals are set to target Dwayne Conway, Jonny Barris, Quinton De Kock, and Lungi Ngidi. These players are high on the team’s list, and they are expected to play a major role in strengthening the squad for IPL 2026.
