Apart from this, there is a constant discussion about the number of players retained. Currently, teams are allowed to retain only four players before the mega auction. There is talk of increasing the number of retained players to 8. Now it will be interesting to see whether the number of retained players increases or not. Apart from this, the franchise has made some other demands as well. Now it remains to be seen what decision BCCI takes regarding retention for the upcoming IPL season.

Among the team owners or co-owners who attended this meeting were Shahrukh Khan from Kolkata Knight Riders, Kavya Maran from Sunrisers Hyderabad, Ness Wadia from Punjab Kings, Sanjeev Goenka from Lucknow Super Giants along with his son Shashwat. Along with this, Parth Jindal of Delhi Capitals was also present. Manoj Badale and Ranjit Barthakur from Rajasthan Royals, Prathamesh Mishra from Royal Challengers Bangalore, Kashi Vishwanathan and Rupa Gurunath from Chennai Super Kings, Amit Soni from Gujarat Titans while the owner of Mumbai Indians participated in it online. In this meeting, the owner of Sunrisers Hyderabad has put forward some big demands before the upcoming season. SRH owner Kavya Maran made this demand in the meeting of BCCI and Owners According to a Cricbuzz report, SRH owner Kavya Maran has said, “It takes a lot of time to build a team and as discussed, grooming young players also takes a lot of time and investment. It took Abhishek Sharma 3 years to bring stability in his performance. You will agree that other teams have many such examples. She prefers mini auctions every year instead of mega auctions. Kavya Maran further said, “After being bought in the auction, if a player does not play the entire season for any reason other than injury, he should be banned. The franchise puts a lot of effort in the auction, if a player goes for a low amount and he does not come. So it affects the team combination.” Along with this, SRH owner has demanded to remove the restriction on the number of foreign players, because last time BCCI allowed to retain maximum 2 foreign players only, since every team is formed in different way which includes Indian players, foreign players and uncapped players.
MS Dhoni may be seen playing in IPL 2025, but BCCI will have to agree to this condition
A big news related to IPL 2025 is coming out. Some media reports have revealed that, if the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) allows 5-6 retentions before the mega auction, then former Chennai Super Kings (CSK) captain MS Dhoni may be seen playing in the upcoming Indian Premier League (IPL) season. After winning the IPL 2023 title as CSK captain, Dhoni underwent knee surgery. The same legendary wicket-keeper batsman surprised everyone as always by taking a bold decision ahead of the 2024 edition where he handed over the captaincy to Ruturaj Gaikwad. MS Dhoni can be seen playing in IPL 2025 MS Dhoni was also seen struggling with a knee injury in IPL 2024. He played all the matches with a knee injury and also did wicketkeeping. However, despite the pain, he batted and also won matches for his team. He scored 25 runs off 13 balls against Royal Challengers Bangalore in his last IPL match. But with the season ending, the question in everyone’s mind was whether Dhoni will play in the upcoming season or not. Whether Mahendra Singh Dhoni (MS Dhoni), who has won 5 trophies for Chennai Super Kings, will play in the upcoming season or not, the decision is in Mahi’s hands. However, a report has come out in Cricbuzz regarding this, which has surprised everyone. If the report is to be believed, Chennai Super Kings will retain Dhoni only if they get permission to retain 5-6 players in IPL. In such a situation, if MS Dhoni decides to play, then obviously CSK would want to include him in their team at any cost. However, Dhoni himself has not given any update so far on whether he will play in the upcoming season or not.

Before the start of the T20 series, there was a heated argument between Hardik and Nair, the matter was resolved like this
Hardik Pandya (Photo Source: Sri Lanka’s tour of India will mark the beginning of a new era of Indian cricket under the leadership of head coach Gautam Gambhir. This is India’s first major series after the victory in the T20 World Cup. Some big decisions were taken in the Indian team before the tour. The biggest decision of which was to make Suryakumar Yadav the captain of T20I in place of Hardik Pandya. Regarding this, Ajit Agarkar told that Suryakumar Yadav has been appointed captain considering the fitness of Hardik Pandya. Meanwhile, the Indian team has reached Sri Lanka for the T20 series and they held their first practice session there on Tuesday. Hardik Pandya was seen in a jovial mood during the first practice session. He had fun with the new assistant coach Abhishek Nair. In fun, he got into a fight with Nair over the boundary. Let us tell you what happened between the two. Hardik Pandya clashed with Abhishek Nair during practice session Hardik interacted with head coach Gautam Gambhir during the training session. He practiced against two openers – Yashasvi Jaiswal and Shubman Gill, who were asked to attack all the bowlers in the 40-minute net session. Hardik then practiced batting under the supervision of Nair, who later put him in match situations. A reporter from RevSportz was present during the shadow practice. The reporter said that Hardik hit a shot towards point and immediately claimed that it was a boundary. Nair disagreed and said that he had placed a fielder in that area. When Hardik asked about the exact placement of the fielder, Nair pointed to the spot where the reporter wearing a red T-shirt was standing. When Nair asked the reporter about the shot on Hardik’s insistence, he said, “If you have placed your fielder here, then it is a boundary.” Nair and Hardik laughed at this funny answer. Nair mistook the reporter for a fan, after which Hardik clarified. Hardik eventually won the practice match and at the end of two practice sessions, he also interacted with the reporter.
Ajit Agarkar doubts Hardik Pandya’s captaincy ability, this is why he was stripped of the captaincy
According to a Hindustan Times report, BCCI chief selector, Ajit Agarkar was unsure about Pandya’s ability as a captain as he noted flaws in his captaincy with GT and MI in the IPL. Notably, the all-rounder was also named as India’s vice-captain for the World Cup 2023 and had to leave the tournament midway after getting injured in a match against Bangladesh. Gautam Gambhir is not sure about Hardik Pandya’s bowling in ODI format However, he has captained India in 16 T20Is and three ODIs when permanent skipper Rohit Sharma was not available. The 30-year-old sought a break from the upcoming white-ball tour after a tough T20 World Cup campaign but the management turned down the request. He has been included in the T20I squad and earlier, head coach, Gautam Gambhir reportedly expected the cricketer to prove his bowling fitness to stay in the ODI format. Gambhir had expressed uncertainty about Pandya’s fitness to bowl 10 overs in ODIs and asked the right-arm pacer to play in the Vijay Hazare Trophy. Mumbai Indians’ new captain Hardik Pandya has not played any ODIs since the World Cup 2023 and has also not been included in the 50-over squad for the Sri Lanka tour. India will play three ODIs and as many T20Is against Sri Lanka, with the first T20I starting on July 27. To everyone’s surprise, BCCI has dropped Ruturaj Gaikwad and Abhishek Sharma from any format for the Sri Lanka tour and Riyan Parag is part of both squads.

In an interview with News18 CricketNext, Nitish Reddy said that, Pat joined just three days before the IPL. Meanwhile, I did well in the practice games and the coach was really impressed. But I wanted the captain to know. I said, ‘Does he know how I play and how I see the game?’ But when he joined, he said, ‘Nitish, you are playing very well.” The all-rounder was surprised to learn that Cummins had watched his batting videos on YouTube. The Australian captain’s move boosted Reddy’s confidence immensely and strengthened his belief in his own abilities. The young all-rounder further added, “I was kind of shocked that how did he know about my batting? He didn’t see me in the practice sessions, so I asked him about it, and he said that he saw my batting videos on YouTube and appreciated my talent. So this is really a kind of encouragement for me.”
