Mumbai, Jan 13 (IBNS): The Indian Premier League (IPL) player registration closed on Friday, Jan 12, 2018, with 1122 players signing up to be a part of the cash rich Indian domestic cricket tournament. 

The auction is scheduled to take place in Bengaluru on Jan 27-28, 2018.

The list that has been sent out to the eight IPL franchises, has 281 capped players, 838 uncapped players, including 778 Indians and three players from the associate nations.

England’s Test captain Joe Root has also thrown his hat into the ring and will be the new entrant for this year's IPL.

Dwayne Bravo, Carlos Brathwaite, Evin Lewis and Jason Holder will add the Caribbean flavor to the league.

Lasith Malinga will lead Sri Lanka’s entourage that includes Angelo Mathews, the exciting Niroshan Dickwella, and Thisara Perera.

Showing his full range of strokes will be Glenn Maxwell, all-rounder Shane Watson and Mitchell Johnson, who bowled Mumbai Indians to their third title last season with his final over heroics.

Hashim Amla, who hit two centuries for Kings XI Punjab in the 10th season, will be hoping for a high bid with compatriots Faf du Plessis, Quinton de Kock, David Miller and speedsters Morne Morkel and Kagiso Rabada.

Kane Williamson, Colin Munro and Tom Latham from New Zealand will add their charm to the league.
