IPL2025 Mega Auction Dates
As of now, there has been no official announcement by the BCCI regarding the dates for the mega auction. However, according to reports, the IPL mega auction is anticipated to take place in November, likely in the third or fourth week of the month. There is also uncertainty surrounding the player retention rules for the upcoming IPL.
Initially, the IPL retention rules were expected to be announced in August. However, during a meeting with franchise owners, the BCCI set a deadline for the announcement of the retention rules. As the deadline approached, the announcement was further delayed. According to a report by Cricbuzz, it is now suggested that the announcement may come at the end of September.
Given the reports, it seems that announcing the retention rules at the end of September could put significant pressure on the franchise. This timing may not allow them enough time to make a well-considered strategic decision regarding player retention. In such a scenario, they might find themselves with very little time to make crucial decisions.
