Bengal T20 League: Mita Paul Emerges As Highest Women’s Pick As 1000+ Cricketers Enter Auction Pool
Across the two auctions, franchises completed 136 player signings in the men’s and 128 player signings in the women’s team. Every men’s franchise assembled a 17-player squad with the mandatory inclusion of at least two U19 players. In comparison, every women’s team completed a 16-player squad featuring at least two U15 players, strengthening the league’s focus on long-term grassroots development.
The first-ever Men’s Auction in Bengal T20 League history produced several high-value signings, with IPL and India all-rounder Shahbaz Ahmed emerging as the most expensive player at ₹12.20 lakh after being retained by Shrachi Tribes Rarh Tigers through RTM. Multiple players crossed the ₹8 lakh mark as franchises aggressively competed for Bengal’s leading domestic performers, IPL talent, and emerging prospects.
