The IPL 2023 is just a few months away. The biggest T20 league in the world will soon get underway in India, where 10 star-studded teams will vie for the prize. The mini auction for IPL 2023 took place last month in Kochi.
More than 75 players earned contracts from the 10 franchises ahead of the IPL 2023 season. Apart from that, the teams had also retained the majority of their players from IPL 2022 for the 2023 season.
IPL 2022 finalists Rajasthan Royals bought nine players in the IPL 2023 auction. They have completed a 25-member squad and still, they have 6.75 crores remaining in their purse. The finalists of IPL 2022 would look to go one better and win their second IPL title this year.
Heading into the IPL 2023 auction, RR needed all-rounders with James Neesham and Daryl Mitchell being released. They also need a good quality Indian pacer to pair alongside Navdeep Saini and Prasidh Krishna. Like all the franchises they also had eyes on Ben Stokes, Sam Curran, and Cameron Green for filling up the all-rounder’s slot. They had a pretty solid first XI and needed overall backups.

RR bought several overseas players and Donovan Ferrera is one of the exciting players whom they bagged in the previous auction. He has been playing for the Joburg Super Kings in the SA20 and has played several impactful innings. He is a big-hitter all-rounder and can be Rajasthan’s X-factor this season. Meanwhile, in this article, we take a look at the three worse buys of the franchise in the IPL 2023 auction.
Joe Root was one of their last-minute buys in the IPL auction. Root is out of England’s white-ball plans at the moment not having picked for the ODI series against South Africa. The former skipper is trying very hard to revive his white-ball career as he is playing for the Dubai Capitals in the ongoing ILT20 league. Root has scored 214 runs in five games striking at over 130. However, in a team with a settled batting line, up the former England skipper might find it difficult to break through.
Out of 405 players, there are 132 overseas players and 282 uncapped players, and 4 from associate nations. there are 87 slots available while 30 are for overseas players.
Sunrisers Hyderabad has the maximum salary cap available of Rs. 42.25 crores available. Kolkata Knight Riders have the least salary cap available for Rs. 7.05 crores. Below are all the details about IPL 2023 auction.

Travis Head is a credible name in the Big Bash League (BBL) as he has won a lot of games for Adelaide Strikers with his power-hitting ability. For his team, the left-hander has scored 1,375 runs so far in 56 matches at a strike rate of 132.59. Last month, he participated in the 2023 IPL auction to go under the hammer after five years.
In the event, he went unsold as no franchise raised the bidding paddles to sign him. Despite having more than 10 years of BBL experience, he received cold shoulder from the franchises. For his national side Australia too, he has played 17 games, in which he has racked up 345 runs at a strike rate of 133.20.
However, these facts and figures didn’t help him to get a buyer at the mini-auction. The Aussie wicket-keeper had submitted his name with his base price of INR 2 crore. Noting his basic amount, SRH could’ve roped him into their team instead of Heinrich Klaasen, whose IPL record is similar to Head.
Caribbean fast bowler Alzarri Joseph has been in demand in the world's top T20 leagues. He was a member of the Gujarat Titans (GT) squad that won IPL 2022. GT retained him for ₹2.4 crore in IPL 2023.
Joseph earned a contract worth R 2.1 million from the Joburg Super Kings. It approximately equals to ₹99.71 lakh.
England all-rounder Will Jacks has been one of the top performers for Pretoria Capitals in the ongoing SA20 tournament. PC grabbed his services for R 1.1 million (approximately ₹52.21 lakh) at the SA20 Auction.
Last month, Royal Challengers Bangalore signed Jacks for ₹3.2 crore, which is almost six times of his SA20 salary.
