New Delhi, August 10, 2026 (Yes Punjab News)
The Sher-e-Punjab T20 League will play a key role in strengthening Punjab’s cricketing pathway by giving young players an opportunity to compete alongside established stars, Punjab Cricket Association (PCA) President Amarjit Singh Mehta said.
His comments came after all six franchises completed their squads at the auction ahead of the tournament. India stars Shubman Gill and Abhishek Sharma are among the marquee names set to feature, with Gill representing Fazilka Falcons and Abhishek turning out for his home franchise, Amritsar Soormas.
India pacer Arshdeep Singh will play for Ludhiana Lions, wicketkeeper-batter Prabhsimran Singh for Jalandhar Warriors, all-rounder Ramandeep Singh for Mohali Kings and pacer Gurnoor Brar for Bathinda Royals.
The six teams — Fazilka Falcons, Amritsar Soormas, Bathinda Royals, Jalandhar Warriors, Ludhiana Lions and Mohali Kings — entered the auction with a starting purse of Rs 45 lakh each. Six marquee players were signed for Rs 10 lakh apiece, while franchises were required to assemble squads of 16 to 20 players.
Sanvir Singh emerged as the auction’s costliest buy, with Fazilka Falcons securing him for Rs 13.20 lakh. Amritsar Soormas bought Naman Dhir for Rs 10.80 lakh, while Mohali Kings acquired Amolpreet Singh for Rs 8.20 lakh. Bathinda Royals signed Harnoor Singh and Ashwani Kumar for Rs 7 lakh each, while Jalandhar Warriors picked Sukhdeep Bajwa for Rs 6 lakh.
“We have worked tirelessly with the Punjab Chief Minister to turn this vision into reality, and we are delighted to see it taking shape,” Mehta said.
He described the PCA Stadium in Mohali as a special venue and said the league would allow players from across Punjab to experience playing at the iconic ground and showcase their abilities on a bigger platform.
