Abhimanyu Easwaran is the most notable Indian player added to the final IPL auction list. He is one of 19 players who joined the roster late for the auction, which takes place this Tuesday in Abu Dhabi.
While 1,390 players originally registered, the IPL Governing Council has now finalised a shorter list.
The council first pruned the list to 350 names. However, franchises requested more players, and the pool grew to 369. This updated list includes nine names that were briefly added and then removed earlier this month.
Easwaran’s inclusion follows his stellar form in domestic cricket. The Bengal captain recently smashed 130 not out off just 66 balls against Punjab in the Syed Mushtaq Ali T20 Tournament. Despite being a regular in Indian national squads for years, he has often been overlooked for the final playing XI.
According to a Cricbuzz report, a franchise pushed for Easwaran’s name at the last minute. BCCI officials described such a late inclusion as “unprecedented”. Other prominent Indian names on the list include Swastik Chikhara and Manishankar Murasingh.
