From CricArcade's IPL records, 2017 to 2026 · Sources

Vishnu Vinod, a wicketkeeper-batter, has played three IPL seasons for three franchises.

The arrival

Vishnu Vinod's first IPL season was 2017, with Royal Challengers Bangalore, a signing made outside the auction.

That first season brought 3 matches and 19 runs.

Franchise by franchise

2017, Royal Challengers Bangalore. 3 matches and 19 runs.

2023, Mumbai Indians. Bought at the 2023 auction for ₹20 lakh. 3 matches and 37 runs.

2026, Punjab Kings. Arrived outside the auction. 1 match and 15 runs.

2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2024 and 2025 are missing from the record: seasons without an IPL appearance.

In the field

The fielding record: 1 catch and 2 stumpings.

At the auction

Vishnu Vinod has gone under the hammer five times, bought four times and left unsold once. The highest price was ₹95 lakh, paid by Punjab Kings in 2025, more than 3 times the base price. The price climbed with the reputation: ₹20 lakh in 2021, ₹95 lakh by 2025. Unsold in 2018, Vishnu Vinod was bought in 2021 by Delhi Capitals. Being bought did not always mean playing: no match followed for Delhi Capitals in 2021, Sunrisers Hyderabad in 2022 and Punjab Kings in 2025.

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

Where it stands

Vishnu Vinod has made 7 IPL appearances, the latest for Punjab Kings in 2026.
