Veteran Australian cricketer Glenn Maxwell has withdrawn from the IPL 2026 mini-auction, citing gratitude for his decade-long career while acknowledging a decline in form that has impacted his auction value.

Unlikely to get bidders, Glenn Maxwell pulls out of IPL auction

<p data-start="68" data-end="301">Veteran Australian cricketer Glenn Maxwell has withdrawn from the IPL 2026 mini-auction, citing gratitude for his decade-long career while acknowledging a decline in form that has impacted his auction value.</p>

<p>Glenn Maxwell, whose IPL career over the last decade has largely been underwhelming, decided to pull out of the upcoming mini auctions scheduled in Abu Dhabi on December 16.</p>
<p>The 37-year-old, popularly known as "Big Show" for being a phenomenal talent in his younger days, has played every IPL season since 2012, barring one in 2019. He has managed only 2819 runs in 141 games at a strike rate of 155 plus and an average of less than 24, which doesn't justify the kind of prices that he has been consistently fetching in auctions over the years. He also picked 41 wickets with his off-breaks at an economy rate of 8.30.</p>
<p>"After many unforgettable seasons in the IPL, I 've decided not to put my name into auctions this year. It's a big call and one I make with a lot of gratitude for everything this league has given me," Maxwell wrote on his Instagram page.&nbsp;</p>

<p>"The IPL has shaped me as a cricketer and as a person. I have been lucky to play with world class teammates, incredible franchises, and perform in-front of fans whose passion is unmatched. The memories, challenges and the energy of India will stay with me forever."</p>
<p>While Maxwell didn&rsquo;t specify a reason, it is evident that most major franchises have grown weary of waiting for him to deliver a good season, something that has been rare. His multi-million dollar bids at auction often defied logic with franchise owners attributing it to market forces. But with increased use of data analytics, it has become clear that Maxwell was being paid way more than he ever deserved.</p>
<p>Out of 13 seasons that he has played, only once in 2021 did he cross 500 runs -- 513 with six fifties and a strike rate of 144 plus. That he is no longer an attractive commodity in the IPL market was evident across last two seasons (2024 and 2025) where he totalled a lowly 100 runs in 17 games with aggregate of 52 and 48 runs respectively.</p>
<p>During the last season, he had left after playing seven games and didn't come back when IPL resumed post Operation Sindoor.</p>

The IPL 2026 auction longlist of 1,355 players has been shared with franchises, featuring top-tier names like Cameron Green, Liam Livingstone, Venkatesh Iyer, and Ravi Bishnoi. 

IPL 2026 auction: 1,355 players up for grabs, Cameron Green and Venkatesh Iyer in Rs 2 crore base price

<p>The IPL 2026 auction longlist of 1,355 players has been shared with franchises, featuring top-tier names like Cameron Green, Liam Livingstone, Venkatesh Iyer, and Ravi Bishnoi.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The longlist for the IPL 2026 auction, featuring 1,355 registered players, has been released and shared with franchises after the registration window closed on November 30, reports suggest.&nbsp;</p>
<p>At the top tier, 45 players have entered the highest reserve price of Rs. 2 crore, including names such as Cameron Green, Liam Livingstone, Matheesha Pathirana, and Wanindu Hasaranga, while Venkatesh Iyer and Ravi Bishnoi are the only Indians in this elite group.</p>
<p>With only 77 slots available across 10 franchises, including 31 spots for overseas players, teams are set to submit their shortlists by December 5, after which the final auction pool will be confirmed. The auction in Abu Dhabi on December 16 will be a major event as franchises aim to strengthen their squads ahead of the 2026 season.</p>
<p>Australia&rsquo;s Cameron Green is expected to be a key attraction. Having missed the 2025 mega-auction due to a back injury, the versatile allrounder &mdash; known for his batting, bowling, and fielding skills &mdash; is likely to draw intense bidding.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Among franchises, Kolkata Knight Riders, with a purse of Rs. 64.3 crore, and Chennai Super Kings, with Rs. 43.4 crore, are viewed as the frontrunners, particularly with open overseas slots. KKR is likely to be aggressive after Andre Russell&rsquo;s recent IPL retirement.</p>
<p>Several recently released players have also joined the top price bracket. Pathirana, released by CSK despite being a key death bowler, and Livingstone, let go by RCB after a difficult season, are notable inclusions.&nbsp;</p>
<p>For India, Venkatesh Iyer and Ravi Bishnoi, previously retained for significant sums, have now opted for the highest reserve category following their release.</p>
<p><strong>No Glenn Maxwell, Josh Inglis Returns</strong></p>
<p>The longlist excludes Glenn Maxwell, who fractured his finger in the 2025 season, raising uncertainty about his IPL future. On the other hand, Josh Inglis, a vital part of Punjab Kings&rsquo; run to the 2025 final, has re-entered the auction pool again despite reportedly being available for only 25 per cent of the season due to personal commitments.</p>
<p>The auction has also attracted international talent from 14 countries, ranging from established names like Steve Smith, Mustafizur Rahman, Rachin Ravindra, and Gerald Coetzee, to emerging stars such as Jake Fraser-McGurk and Jamie Smith. Veteran Shakib Al Hasan, who has featured in 71 IPL matches across nine seasons, has set his base price at Rs. 1 crore.</p>
<p>Alongside overseas stars, 16 prominent Indian players, including Mayank Agarwal, KS Bharat, Rahul Chahar, Prithvi Shaw, and Navdeep Saini, have registered for the auction. Adding a unique entry, India-born Malaysian allrounder Virandeep Singh has listed himself at a base price of Rs. 30 lakh.</p>
<p>With franchises collectively holding Rs. 237.55 crore and numerous high-profile vacancies, the IPL 2026 auction is shaping up to be a high-stakes battle for talent, strategy, and squad composition.</p>
<p><strong>Players With Rs. 2 Crore Base Price</strong></p>
<p>Ravi Bishnoi, Venkatesh Iyer, Mujeeb ur Rahman, Naveen ul Haq, Sean Abott, Ashton Agar, Cooper Connolly, Jake Fraser-McGurk, Cameron Green, Josh Inglis, Steve Smith, Mustafizur Rahman, Gus Atkinson, Tom Banton, Tom Curran, Liam Dawson, Ben Duckett, Dan Lawrence, Liam Livingstone, Tymal Mills, Jamie Smith, Finn Allen, Michael Bracewell, Devon Conway, Jacob Duffy, Matt Henry, Kyle Jamieson, Adam Milne, Daryll Mitchell, Will O&rsquo;Rourke, Rachin Ravindra, Gerald Coetzee, David Miller, Lungi Ngidi, Anrich Nortje, Rilee Roussouw, Tabraiz Shamsi, David Wiese, Wanindu Hasaranga, Mateesha Pathirana, Maheesh Theekshana, Jason Holder, Shai Hope, Akeal Hosein, Alzarri Joseph</p>
