IPL 2023 Auction (Image Source: BCCI-IPL) IPL 2025 Mega Auction: IPL franchise owners and BCCI have a meeting in Mumbai on July 31 to discuss some key agendas ahead of the upcoming IPL 2025 mega auction. The biggest topic of discussion in the meeting will be the purse value of all IPL teams, which is likely to increase. Apart from this, the IPL Impact Player rules and the number of retentions per team during the IPL 2025 mega auction will also be discussed. What is the agenda of this meeting? Increase in purse value According to reports, the meeting between IPL franchise owners and BCCI will take place at the newly renovated BCCI office at the Wankhede Stadium. The IPL owners are reportedly excited as the purse value for each team is likely to increase. Currently, each side has a purse value of Rs 100 crore, so it is expected that the purse value will be increased by 20-25%. That means the purse value will now be Rs 120-125 crore. Higher purse value means that the franchises will have more room for manoeuvre and will be able to bid at any price for their top players. Impact player rule may be abolished Apart from this, there could also be a push to abolish the impact player rule, which has been heavily criticised by former cricketers and legends like Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli. Increase in the number of players to be retained The number of players to be retained ahead of the mega auction may be increased from four to five. Notably, in the last IPL mega auction, the BCCI allowed each side to retain four players, but this year the number may increase to five to keep all the franchises happy. Naturally, IPL teams that have performed well will want to retain their core players. While other teams that have not had as much success will want to reset their squad. A source said- “Obviously, continuity and maintaining a core is very important going forward. Maybe six (retentions) will be allowed, which will include some RTM cards. That means at least one uncapped player will also be included in the retention. But there may be some debate on the number of foreign retentions.” “There are teams like Delhi Capitals (Jake Fraser-McGurk and Tristan Stubbs) and Sunrisers Hyderabad (Pat Cummins, Heinrich Klaasen and Travis Head) who would want more than one overseas retention,”

Wasim Akram lashed out at Pakistan team Let us tell you that on Pakistan’s defeat against India in the T20 World Cup, Wasim Akram said, as quoted by Star Sports – He has been playing cricket for 10 years, and I cannot teach him. Mohammad Rizwan has no game awareness. He should have known that Jasprit Bumrah was given the ball to take wickets and you have the wisdom to play him carefully. But Rizwan went to play a big shot and lost his wicket. Akram further said- Iftikhar Ahmed knows how to hit a shot on the leg side. He has been part of the team for years but does not know how to bat. I cannot go and tell Fakhar Zaman about game awareness, because he has been part of the team for a long time. Pakistani players think that if they don’t perform well, the coach will be sacked and nothing will happen to them. But now the time has come to retain the coaches and change the entire team. On the other hand, after the defeat against the Indian team, Pakistan has to face Canada in its next match on June 11. If Pakistan has to remain in the race for the Super 8 of the ongoing T20 World Cup, then it will have to win at all costs.

Talking on this issue, former Indian cricketer Harbhajan has said that RCB bowlers should change their mindset while defending the target in IPL 2024. While talking to Star Sports, Harbhajan Singh said that he repeatedly makes mistakes in the team he selects. They invest more on batting and that too overseas. They take on strong overseas batsmen but bowling has always been their weakness. This is still the situation and it is also obvious. If you bowl well you can get them out – Harbhajan Singh He further said, whether you bat first or second, you have to bat well to score 180 runs and 180 should be the winning total. Your mindset is that the 180 will be chased. How will he be pursued? The opposing team will have to score that score. Harbhajan Singh continued his talk and said, if you bowl well then you can get him out. It doesn’t matter who is playing, whether it is Russell or anyone else. A good ball is a good ball. Bowlers will have to change their mentality. Instead of trying to survive by bowling a good over, he should try to take wickets. Harbhajan Singh believes that RCB would have looked to score a total of 200, so that the weakness of the bowling could be hidden. He said that one cannot score 220 or 230 every time. Therefore the bowlers will have to take responsibility. Siraj is not looking in good form. He needs to get in form. Other bowlers will also have to perform well.

Actually, Ruturaj Gaikwad was seen in the captains’ photoshoot for IPL 2024 on March 21, only after which everyone came to know about Dhoni’s decision. The timing of MS Dhoni leaving the captaincy like this was not right: Wasim Jaffer Meanwhile, Wasim Jaffer believes that the timing of Dhoni leaving the captaincy like this was not right. The former batsman said that if Dhoni was not part of the team, the move would have been more appropriate. He also expressed concern that Dhoni’s presence in CSK could potentially create challenges for new captain Ruturaj Gaikwad. “No, I don’t think it was the right time for MS Dhoni to resign as captain,” Wasim Jaffer was quoted as saying by ESPNcricinfo. I think it would have made more sense if MS Dhoni was not part of the team. If he had retired and was not in the team, this timing could have been right. If that had happened, things would have become much easier for the new captain.” “If Dhoni was not there, then…” Wasim Jaffer further said, “Since he is still a part of the team, things are going to become difficult for Ruturaj Gaikwad. Ruturaj Gaikwad takes a decision or not, and whether Dhoni agrees with that decision or not. What, will he like those decisions? And you are on your own, and we all know that Ruturaj Gaikwad would have been the next captain of CSK. But I think if Dhoni was not there, all this would have been much easier.”
