HOW THE IPL AUCTION WORKS

Auction an 18-man squad against a live salary cap, retain your core between seasons, and make in-game tactical calls: Power Surges, bowling changes, batting order, and pitch reads. Play a single Quick Play tournament with a fixed seed and a shareable result, or commit to Squad Mode, a multi-season franchise manager career where retention prices, transfer windows and club milestones carry across years. Every squad draws on real historical rosters, from the 2008 inaugural IPL season through the newest campaigns.

2022, Sunrisers Hyderabad. Bought at the 2022 auction for ₹2.40 cr. 1 match, 7 runs and 1 wicket.

2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020 and 2021 are missing from the record: seasons without an IPL appearance.

At the auction

Sean Abbott went under the hammer nine times, bought twice and left unsold seven times. The highest price was ₹2.40 cr, paid by Sunrisers Hyderabad in 2022, more than 12 times the base price. The price climbed with the reputation: ₹1 cr in 2015, ₹2.40 cr by 2022. Unsold in 2017, Sean Abbott was bought again in 2022 by Sunrisers Hyderabad.

Seasons without an auction entry were played under a retention, a trade or a signing made outside the auction.

The legacy

Sean Abbott made 3 IPL appearances, the last for Sunrisers Hyderabad in 2022.
