Every year before India’s most beloved and successful domestic sports league, the Indian Premier League (IPL) takes place, it goes through an auction of players. The auction is one of the grandest events to take place before the league begins. It is a sort of ‘reshuffler’ for the teams participating in the league. Players are put for the auction and the bidding starts. The teams who want the player on auction have to bid the highest if they want that player to join their squad.
The auction serves as a refresher for teams so that they can get the opportunity to get new players and strengthen their squad. The auction for IPL 2024 is scheduled to happen on December 19, 2023, in the haven of elites, Dubai.

IPL Auction 2024 Updates
- Gujarat Titan’s captain and Indian all-rounder Hardik Pandya will be traded to Mumbai Titans in the upcoming IPL season. Pandya’s trade from GT to MI will cost Rs 15 crores. GT will not take any player from MI in the trade.
- With Hardik Pandya’s departure, questions have arisen regarding who will take the helm of GT’s leadership. New Zealand’s captain Kane Williamson is supposedly the frontrunner for the captaincy role.
- In a surprising turn of events, Gujarat Titans have retained Hardik Pandya. He will not be traded to Mumbai Indians and will continue to captain GT.
