[ Poll: KyRMA1wA ]

Karun Nair was the most expensive player bought in the 2026 Maharaja Trophy T20 auction. The Karnataka State Cricket Association's T20 tournament will start on June 20 in Mysuru. Two new teams have joined the competition this season.

Matches will be played in Mysuru, Hubballi, and Bengaluru, with the final set to take place on July 12 at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium. India’s Test vice-captain KL Rahul went unsold at the 2026 Maharaja Trophy T20 auction.

The reason wasn’t that no franchise was interested but rather unavailability. The wicketkeeper-batter is currently in Mullanpur for the India vs Afghanistan one-off Test. He’ll play ODIs against Afghanistan next week and then fly to England in early July.
