Rachin Ravindra

Rachin Ravindra is a dynamic left-handed batter and handy left-arm spinner from New Zealand, currently playing for Chennai Super Kings in the IPL. At just 25, he has emerged as a promising all-round talent, representing New Zealand in all formats and Wellington in domestic cricket. His IPL 2025 base price is set at ₹2 crore as a capped player.

In IPL 2025, Ravindra featured regularly for CSK, delivering consistent contributions with the bat while chipping in with occasional wickets. He notched several impactful innings, including brisk half-centuries in the middle order and useful spells that broke partnerships. His ability to accelerate and provide balance made him a valuable asset in CSK’s lineup throughout the season.

Multiple franchises, including Mumbai Indians, Kolkata Knight Riders, and Rajasthan Royals, are expected to show strong interest at the IPL 2026 auction. Given his rising stock and proven utility, Ravindra could attract aggressive bidding. A realistic sale price is projected between ₹6-9 crore, depending on auction dynamics and team strategies. In 2026, expect him to take on greater responsibility as a middle-order stabilizer and part-time bowling option.
