IPL 2026 Mini Auction: 5 T20 Mumbai League Talents Who Could Earn IPL Contracts

Shashank Attarde

The 33-year-old offspinner finished the T20 Mumbai League 2025 as the highest wicket-taker. Playing for Eagle Thane Strikers, Attarde didn’t go wicketless in any games and only once conceded runs at an economy of more than 8. Attarde, who has played six first-class and two List A games for Mumbai, is also a decent batter down the order.

Shyamsundar Keshkamat

Shyamsundar Keshkamat, 23, has been in good form for the Bandra Blasters. He’s scored 145 runs in five matches, averaging 32.50 with an impressive strike rate of 144.44. He’s shown consistency and has played some quick, impactful innings. If he continues like this, there’s a good chance IPL teams will start taking notice.

Suved Parkar

The Bandra Blasters' 24-year-old cricket player, Suved Parkar, has started the competition well. He has amassed 212 runs at a strike rate of 158.21 and an average of 35.40 in six games. He has demonstrated excellent batting form and has already hit two half-centuries. He might be one of the most important players to keep an eye on in the upcoming games if he continues to play this well. IPL teams searching for young talent may be drawn to his performances.

Chinmay Sutar

Batting at No.3 for Mumbai South Central Maratha Royals, Sutar hit three fifties in seven games, including one in the final, which his team won by five wickets. The 28-year-old’s biggest strength is that he can play according to the situation, and CSK have always preferred such batters in their unit.

Yash Dicholkar

The SoBo Mumbai Falcons’ left-arm spinner, Dicholkar, bowled 23 overs in the tournament and stood out with the best economy rate among 35 bowlers who bowled at least 10 overs. He kept things tight in five out of six innings, going for less than six runs per over each time. In T20 cricket, most teams have a reliable left-arm spinner who can control the flow of runs, and Dicholkar looks ready to take on that role for MI.
