IPL released final list of 66 players based on interest of franchises. Earlier 97 players registered for the Auction. Chris Cairns was removed from the list by IPL because of match fixing issues. This lead to a controversy and Chris Cairns was reported to be planning to sue Lalit Modi for the issue.

This list was then cut down to 51 players (based on franchise interest). No England players were included in that list because of a clause in NOC of England players which didnt allow them to be available during whole tournament. Later the problem was resolved and England players too were included in the list of players available for auction.

The latest list of 66 players released by IPL includes 11 players from Pakistan, Australia and South Africa; 9 from Sri Lanka; 8 from England and West Indies; 4 from New Zealand and 1 each from Bangladesh, Zimbabwe, Canada and Holland.
