Replacement signings
Players were signed as replacement of contracted players who were not available to play due to injuries and national commitments. Under IPL rules, the replacements have to be chosen from the pool of players who went unsold in the auction, and cannot be paid more than the players they are replacing, though they can be paid less.
Auction
The players auction for the 2012 Indian Premier League (fifth season) was held on 4 February 2012 in Bangalore.[20] Each player in the auction pool had a base price under which franchise owners cannot bid. Players were allowed to set their base price between $20,000 to $400,000. The auction was telecast live on SET Max, the official broadcaster of IPL.[21]
IPL authority increased the number of players in each squad to 33 from the previous limit of 30 and also increased the salary cap by $2 million.[20] Each team can have a maximum of 11 overseas players in their squad and they can spend up to $2 million at auction.
The players of Kochi Tuskers Kerala were included in the players auction.[22] Kochi was terminated by the BCCI in September 2011.
