Day two of the Pro Kabaddi League (PKL) player auctions will see the overseas players, from nine countries, go under the hammer on Monday.
The Pro Kabaddi League (PKL) has seen regular participation from overseas stars over the last seven seasons and the Iranian players have taken the league by storm. Fazel Atrachali, a fan favourite, became the league's most expensive foreign player when he was signed for a staggering ₹1 crore by U Mumba ahead of season six. He is one of the league's best defenders and is the first overseas player to score 300 tackle points in the league. He has been retained by U Mumba.

Much like Fazel, Republic of Korea's Jang Kun Lee has also emerged as one of the most loved players in India. One of the most successful overseas raiders in the PKL, Lee spent six seasons at Bengal Warriors before playing for Patna Pirates last season. He holds the record for the most points by an overseas player - 496 points from 106 games.
Along with stars from Iran and Republic of Korea, the auctions will also see representation from Sri Lanka, Thailand, Kenya, Bangladesh, Nepal, Malaysia and Japan in the fray.
