The IPL 2027 trade window has already reshaped several squads, and the biggest deal so far was confirmed on 11 November 2026. For GoPlay11 IPL readers who plan free fantasy teams months ahead, trades matter: they change who opens the bowling, who captains, and which squads have gaps to fill at the auction. Here is every trade confirmed by the IPL so far, with the fees from official releases.

That is ten players in four trades. Other names have been linked with moves in media reports, but we list only deals the IPL has confirmed.

The big one: Hardik Pandya and Arshdeep Singh

The IPL’s media advisory of 11 November 2026 confirmed that Mumbai Indians captain Hardik Pandya moves to Punjab Kings and Arshdeep Singh joins MI. The IPL says Arshdeep has 111 wickets in 96 IPL matches and is PBKS’ all-time leading wicket-taker, while Pandya has 2,955 runs and 82 wickets in 162 IPL matches. ESPNcricinfo notes that the move leaves MI looking for a new captain for next season.

For free fantasy planning, this changes two squads at once. MI gains a proven new-ball and death-overs left-armer, and PBKS gains an all-rounder who has captained IPL sides.

What the other trades change

  • Delhi Capitals get back their former captain Rishabh Pant as wicketkeeper-batter, while Kuldeep Yadav’s wrist spin moves to Lucknow.
  • Sunrisers Hyderabad add three pace options, T Natarajan, Khaleel Ahmed and Nathan Ellis, after the two trades.
  • Chennai Super Kings add two overseas all-rounders, Liam Livingstone and Jack Edwards. The IPL notes that Edwards missed IPL 2026 with a foot injury.

Key dates still to come

  • 17 November 2026: deadline for teams to submit retained and released players, moved from 15 November (ESPNcricinfo).
  • 23 November: player registration closes.
  • Around 9 December: the first trade window closes, seven days before the auction, according to Business Standard‘s summary of IPL trading rules.
  • 16 December 2026: mini-auction in Goa.

Trades can still happen before the window closes, and a second window reopens after the auction. Our earlier IPL 2027 retention and auction dates guide has the full timeline.

How to use trade news for free fantasy prep

  • Note role changes, not just names. A bowler who joins a side with a strong attack may bowl fewer overs at the death.
  • Wait for the retention lists on 17 November before judging any squad, because releases can matter as much as trades.
  • Remember that the auction can undo early assumptions.

Free fantasy leagues with no entry fee are fine. Paid IPL fantasy contests are online money games, banned in India since 1 May 2026. For more, see our GoPlay11 IPL guide.
