An important meeting is going to be held between the owners of IPL teams and BCCI in Mumbai today i.e. on Wednesday, July 31. Many big decisions can be taken in this meeting. These decisions can change the entire picture of IPL in 2025. So let's know what changes can be seen in the mega auction.
The number of players retiring may increase
There is a constant debate about the number of retained players. Team owners can discuss this in depth in a meeting with the BCCI. Currently, teams are allowed to retain only four players before the mega auction. There is talk of increasing the number of retired players to 8. Now it will be interesting to see whether the number of retained players increases or not.
Teams' purse value
The purse value of the teams can vary considerably. In the 2022 mega auction, the purse value of the teams was Rs 90 crore. However, after this the purse value was changed in the mini auction. Now a big change can be seen in this. In this time's mega auction, the purse value of the teams can increase to about Rs 120 crore.
A mega auction every 5 years?
Currently, IPL mega auction takes place every three years. Now there can be a change in this mega auction. The mega auction can be extended for 5 years. Now it remains to be seen what decision BCCI finally takes on this.
Right to Match rules
The 'Right to Match' rule can also be discussed in the meeting. Under this rule, teams can retain 5 players instead of 4. This rule is used in auctions. For example, if a team has not retained any of its players and that team wants to bring that player back to the team. Then due to the right to match, the team can bring that player back to its team at the same price at which the other team bought him.
Discussion on foreign players
The slots for foreign players may be discussed in the meeting. Currently, teams can retain four players, which can include 3 Indian or 2 foreign players. Now if the list of retained players increases, it will be interesting to see how many foreign players are retained in it. IPL teams may request the BCCI to take action against foreign players who withdraw from the season at the last moment.
