Controversy over retention rules in IPL 2025, now big players have entered the fray

When the mega action of IPL 2025 will take place, what will be the retention policy for it, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has remained silent on all these topics. If some media reports are to be believed, BCCI can announce the retention policy at the end of September. Now two former Indian cricketers Suresh Raina and Ambati Rayudu have given a big statement on the mega auction.

Ambati Rayudu said a big thing about the retention policy

Ambati Rayudu, who plays for Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the IPL, said, “I think more players should be allowed to be retained because a franchise invests a lot of money on a player. A team becomes strong only with the core players.” As long as there are core players, only one or two players should not be retained.

Suresh Raina supported

At the same time, Suresh Raina has also played for CSK for many years and he has fully supported Rayudu's statement. He said, “I agree with Rayudu 100 percent. There should be a mega auction every 3 years. Whatever decision the IPL officials take will be good for the game.”

Rayudu and Raina will play in Legends League Cricket

Ambati Rayudu and Suresh Raina will soon be seen playing in the Legends League Cricket (LLC 2024). The league will start from September 20, in which a total of 6 teams will participate. As far as Suresh Raina is concerned, he will play for Ultimate Team Hyderabad. At the same time, Ambati Rayudu has been selected in the Konark Suryaaj Odisha team. The thrill of this league will continue till October 16.
