11 Harshal Patel ₹8,00,00,000.00 SunRisers Hyderabad
 
  Mohammad Siraj (Rs 12.25 Crore to Gujarat Titans)
 
 
Siraj would be shifting bases from RCB to Gujarat Titans as they bought him for Rs 12.25 Crores in the IPl 2025 auction. He would miss playing with his role model Virat Kohli now but would relish the opportunity ahead.
 
Bhuvneshwar Kumar (Rs 10.75 Crore to RCB)
 
The experienced Indian pacer was seemingly targeted by the Challengers as their prime bowler in the auction with the franchise going full steam in the bidding process for him. 
 
T Natarajan (Rs 10.75 Crore to DC)
 
A reliable source of wickets for SRH earlier, Natarajan will be a decent asset for the Delhi Capitals who also have Mitchell Starc in their squad now.
 
Mohd Shami (Rs 10 Crore to SRH)
 
Despite of his long injury haul recently, former GT bowler Shami was valued highly in the auction and got himself Rs 10 Crores which saw him go to SunRisers Hyderabad this time.
