Matt Henry is a right-arm fast bowler from New Zealand, currently playing for Lucknow Super Giants in the IPL. He is a capped player with a base price of ₹1.5 crore for the IPL 2026 auction.
In IPL 2025, Henry featured for Lucknow Super Giants and contributed with the ball in the middle overs. He picked up wickets at crucial stages and maintained an economy rate suited to T20 cricket, though detailed run and wicket figures from the season remain limited in public records.
For the IPL 2026 auction, several franchises with weaker pace attacks, including Rajasthan Royals and Gujarat Titans, are expected to show interest in Henry due to his experience in overseas conditions and ability to swing the ball early. His proven record in international cricket adds to his appeal as a reliable overseas option.
In IPL 2026, teams can expect Henry to deliver in the powerplay and death overs, providing control and occasional breakthroughs. A realistic auction price for him is projected between ₹3-4 crore, depending on bidding competition and team requirements for experienced pacers.
