Add as a preferred source on Google

The Pro Kabaddi 2022 is scheduled to be held from October to December this year, but before that, the 12 teams assembled their squads at the two-day PKL Player Auction on August 5th and 6th in Mumbai.

Before 500 players including Pawan Sehrawat and Pardeep Narwal went under the hammer, the teams had also retained some players from the past season in elite and young players categories.

13 Retained Young Players, 19 Elite Retained Players and 38 Existing New Young Players (NYP) were retained ahead of the auction. There were also 41 Franchisees-nominated New Young Players (NYP).

Bengal Warriors had retained skipper Maninder Singh while Patna Pirates have retained their star defender Mohammadreza Chiyaneh. Defending champions Dabang Delhi K.C. have decided to keep star raider Naveen Kumar and all-rounder Vijay in their squad.

Three-time champions Patna Pirates have the most Elite Retained Players (4) and their all-rounder Mohammadreza Shadloui Chiyaneh is the only overseas player retained by any PKL team ahead of Season 9.

Other prominent names who have been retained are Arjun Deshwal (Jaipur Pink Panthers), Surender Gill (UP Yoddhas) and Saurabh Nandal (Bengaluru Bulls).

Each team were given a purse of Rs 4.4 Crore to build their squads for the upcoming season and with the retention the purses of every team has reduced a bit.

Puneri Paltan splashed big bucks to land Iranian duo of Fazel Atrachali and Mohammad Nabibakhsh, while Sandeep Narwal had no takers in the round 1 of the auction that saw 8 players go under the hammer.

In round 2 of day 1 of the auction, Pardeep Narwal was bought back by UP Yoddhas, who used the FBM card, while Sachin Tanwar too will continue with Patna Pirates, who used their FBM card.

In round 3, Bengaluru Bulls broke the record for Vikash Kandola, but that record was soon broken by U Mumba, who made Hi-Flyer Pawan Sehrawat the most expensive player in PKL history, breaking the Rs 2 Crore mark.

Now, here is a look at the players list and remaining purse of all 12 teams after two days of the PKL 2022 acution:
