All the 8 teams will be looking to pick the best players at the best price in the IPL 2021 auction. Most of the teams have retained more players from their last year's squads. The reason for this might be the soon arrival of IPL 2021 as teams want to stick with their already bonded players.

Mumbai Indians

Mumbai Indians led by Rohit Sharma will have around Rs 15 crores to pick 7 players and complete its squad. Since they have released many bowlers, they will be eyeing to fill this gap in the auction.
