PSL Franchise Purse

This is the amount allocated to each franchise to build its squad. Each team has been given a budget of 44.5 crore rupees for the auction and 6.0 crore rupees for direct signings. This means every team can use a total of 50.5 crore rupees to retain players or sign them directly.

After making retentions or direct signings, any remaining amount will be used to enter the auction. The remaining squad must then be selected within this specific purse.
