India is all to host the 13th season of “India ka toyhaar” aka Indian Premier Leauge (IPL) in April-May 2020. And like every year, franchises are filling their kitty with players that can deliver on the ground.
For the same reason, IPL franchises have announced their respective list of players they have retained and traded ahead of IPL 2020 auction scheduled for December 2019.
Notably, the governing body has set a purse-limit of Rs. 85 crore that is Rs. 3-crore more than season 12. This means the total money spending on players (retained, traded and bought) must not exceed Rs. 85 crore cap.
Here is the complete list of players traded ahead of the IPL 2020 auction:
Dhawal Kulkarni (Rajasthan Royals to Mumbai Indians) – Rs 75 lakh
