Ben Dwarshuis is a left-arm fast bowler from Australia, known for his accuracy and ability to swing the ball both ways. Currently representing New South Wales and the Sydney Sixers in domestic cricket, he has earned a reputation as a reliable death bowler in T20 cricket. With no IPL experience so far, Dwarshuis enters the 2026 mega auction as a capped player with a base price of ₹1 crore.
Since he was not part of IPL 2025, there are no on-field statistics from the season. His recent domestic form, however, continues to highlight his skills with the white ball, making him an attractive option for franchises seeking experienced pace options from overseas.
Several IPL teams, including Mumbai Indians and Rajasthan Royals, have shown interest in acquiring Dwarshuis for his ability to deliver in the powerplay and death overs. His left-arm angle offers variety in otherwise right-arm heavy attacks.
In IPL 2026, Dwarshuis is expected to play a supporting role as a death specialist and middle-over containment bowler. Given his T20 pedigree and limited supply of quality overseas pacers, he could attract bids between ₹2-3 crore at the auction.
