Clash of teams before IPL mega auction, there will be 3 big changes!
- Preparations have started for the Indian Premier League 2025
- IPL teams holding a meeting with tournament officials
- Three important issues were discussed in this meeting
Preparations for the Indian Premier League 2025 have begun. Officials of the IPL teams recently met the tournament officials. In this meeting, the franchises raised three important issues. The first point was that a mega auction would be held every 5 years. Also, teams should be allowed to retain 4 to 6 players. Another issue was also raised in this meeting, which was very important.
IPL franchises want to hold mega auctions at an interval of 5 years instead of 3 years. Along with this, every team will be given at least 8 Right to Match (RTM) options. Through this, teams can buy players for their team by matching the highest bid placed on any player during the mega auction.
Why mega auction after 5 years?
According to reports, an official associated with the franchise said that this will benefit the teams. When teams get a long gap for the auction, young players can be included. Uncapped players will benefit the most from this. But now a mega auction takes place every three years.
Franchisees looking to expand RTM option
IPL franchises want the RTM option to be increased to 8. This will also benefit the players. Teams will be able to buy their key players back during the auction. They can be brought back to the team by matching the highest bid price.
All these issues were important in the meeting between IPL officials and the franchise. But no decision has been taken yet. Let us tell you that this time many teams are looking for a new captain. Many big players can be moved around in a mega auction. Teams can also release some big players.
