5 expensive players still waiting for a chance in IPL 2026
The Indian Premier League (IPL) has become synonymous with franchises making big-money signings in the auctions.
3. Jason Holder, Gujarat Titans (INR 7 crore)
Jason Holder came into the 2026 IPL season on the back of some excellent form. He took 10 wickets and scored 141 runs at a strike rate of 174.07 for the West Indies at the 2026 ICC T20 World Cup.
The all-rounder, however, is still waiting for his chance in a GT shirt. This is mainly down to how the 2022 champions set up their side. Both Jos Buttler and Rashid Khan are guaranteed starters, while Kagiso Rabada remains a vital player in the bowling department. Hence, the only remaining overseas spot is occupied by Glenn Phillips.
With an INR 7.00 crore price tag, it is only a matter of time before Holder gets a game for his new team.
