ECLT10 Season 3 Auction: Top Buys, Captains, And Squads: All You Wanna Know

If cricket is, as CLR James once asked, more than just a game, then the ECLT10 Season 3 Auction was more than just a bidding war; it was a signal of intent. On a platform where content creators meet cricket’s shortest format, strategies were laid bare, chequebooks flung open, and reputations, old and new, tested.

The headline was unmistakable: Lakhan Rawat, a name not unfamiliar to followers of the ECL, went for an unprecedented 2.9 crore ECL coins, a record-breaking figure that sent ripples across the league’s digital and cricketing constituencies. Rajasthan Rangers, evidently unwilling to play the long game, are banking on instant dividends. Rawat’s price tag isn’t just a reflection of ability—it’s a statement of ambition.

While the Rangers cornered the spotlight with that single audacious swipe, there was plenty of action elsewhere. Anuj Khurana, a batter of undeniable flair, was picked up for 90 lakh ECL coins by the Haryanvi Hunters, whose batting lacked punch last season. Khurana could be the man to correct that. Meanwhile, Ravindra Singh joined the Kolkata Superstars for 70 lakh ECL coins, a figure more restrained but no less significant. Singh is the type of player who doesn’t dazzle but delivers—often when it matters most.

The Rangers weren’t done. Their purchase of Devi Malik for 25 lakh added depth to an already high-profile roster. Malik, calm under fire, is a reinforcement who won’t attract headlines but could win matches. Bangalore Bashers, not to be left behind, invested 55 lakh in Shubham Singh, a stabilising figure for a side known to lose its way in the middle overs.

Other prudent buys included Rajat Dalal, acquired by Lucknow Lions, and now their new captain after a stint with the Hunters. His is a move that could shift dressing room dynamics as much as scoreboards. Fringe signings-Biksh Chetry (40 lakh), Karan Khandelwal (15 lakh), and Ansh Kukreja (10 lakh)—hinted at squads trying to fill gaps rather than dominate headlines.

Captains for the season echo the ECL’s creator-first DNA: Munawar Faruqui (Mumbai Disruptors), Elvish Yadav (Haryanvi Hunters), Lakshya (Kolkata Superstars), Mahesh Keshwala aka Thugesh (Chennai Smashers), Abhishek Malhan (Bangalore Bashers), and Harsh Gujral (Dynamic Delhi). Dalal, now with Lucknow, rounds out the leadership circle.

Behind all this is a league still defining itself. As founder Himanshu Chandnani put it, “Season 1 and 2 proved that cricket with digital creators is special… now we’re going to take it to the next level.”

Whether that level is sustainable, or simply another upward spike in a game increasingly ruled by spectacle, remains to be seen. What’s clear is that ECLT10 Season 3 won’t lack for drama, dollars—or digital buzz.
