Cameron Green Available To Bowl Despite Batter Listing In IPL 2026

All-rounder Cameron Green has been registered under the batters category in the IPL 2026 auction list, prompting confusion among fans. Reports claimed it was an intentional move so he would get the ultimate leverage among teams, as the batters would be presented first on the auction table.

Cameron Green has now cleared the confusion over the situation and stated there was a mix-up on his manager's end and that he had accidentally checked the wrong box during registration.

The all-rounder has confirmed that he will be good to bowl in the upcoming IPL 2026 season.

"I don't know if my manager will like to hear this, but it was a stuff-up on his end. He didn't mean to say batter, I think he accidentally selected the wrong box, so it was pretty funny how it's all played out, but it's actually a stuff-up on his end. I'll be good to bowl," Cameron Green explained, as quoted by ESPNCricinfo.

After bowling in restricted capacity, Green is expected to bowl more overs in the remaining Ashes Test matches.

"Any overs you can bank up your sleeve in the early games will be beneficial later because I'll obviously be required later in the series when everyone's a bit more tired. Happy to keep the overs at what they are, but I'm certain they're going to get increased the next few games," Green said.

The third Ashes Test match between Australia and England will take place on December 17, 2025, at the Adelaide Oval.
