Harshal Patel Trade for IPL 2027

All teams must submit their retention lists by November 17th, ahead of next month's auction for the Indian Premier League 2027. Franchises are trading players ahead of this, and Harshal Patel is set to join the fray. According to a report in ESPNcricinfo, Sunrisers Hyderabad is considering trading Harshal Patel with Gujarat Titans.

Reports indicate that Sunrisers Hyderabad has agreed to an all-cash deal. Gujarat Titans will add Harshal Patel to their team for ₹4 crore (40 million rupees). SRH acquired Patel for ₹8 crore (80 million rupees) in the IPL 2025 mega auction. This means his IPL price will now be halved. This trade deal will reduce Gujarat's purse by ₹4 crore (40 million rupees).

Harshal Patel made his IPL debut in 2012. He has played for four teams so far. If this deal is finalized, Gujarat Titans will be his fifth team. He has previously played for Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB), Delhi Capitals (DC), Punjab Kings (PBKS), and Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH).

Harshal Patel has won the Purple Cap award twice in the IPL. He won his first Purple Cap in 2021, taking 32 wickets while playing for RCB. He won the award for the second time in 2024, when he was with the Punjab Kings. He took 24 wickets in that edition.

The biggest trade deal for the upacoming edition has recently taken place. The Mumbai Indians captain has moved to the Punjab Kings, while Arshdeep Singh has moved to MI. Kuldeep Yadav (now with Lucknow ) and Rishabh Pant (now with Delhi Capitals) have also been traded.
