Ian Bell, Upul Tharanga, Adrian Barath, Tamim Iqbal and VVS Laxman went unsold at the IPL 5 auction.
The auction got a big twist just hours before the players' auction after Sahara India pulled out from the ownership of IPL franchise Pune Warriors.
Sahara India has been denied replacement for injured Yuvraj Singh for the upcoming fifth edition of Indian Premier League.
"It was an emotional decision for us to start this sponsorship but our emotions were never appreciated and many genuine situations were not given due consideration at all," Sahara said.
Sahara India also requested BCCI to pass on Pune Warriors team to some other interested party immediately.
The franchises have a maximum of $2 million to spend at the auction as they bid to strengthen their line-ups ahead of the tournament which will be played between April 4 and May 27.
The auction has been conducted by Richard Madley, a professional auctioneer from England who has conducted each of the previous IPL player auctions.
