DTVHINDIIPL 2025: Jitesh Sharma beats Rishabh Pant and Shreyas Iyer in the matter of fee increase in mega auction, read big news
RCB bought Jitesh for Rs 11 crore in the mega auction. Jitesh Sharma (Photo Source: Twitter) On 24th and 25th November of this month, the mega auction for IPL 2025 was seen in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. All the 10 franchises involved in this mega auction spent a total of Rs 383 crore to buy 120 players. Indian fast bowler Arshdeep Singh was the first player to be sold in this auction. Arshdeep was bought by Punjab Kings for Rs 18 crore. So in this auction, star wicketkeeper batsman Rishabh Pant has become the most expensive player to be sold in the history of IPL. Pant was bought by Lucknow Super Giants for a huge amount of Rs 27 crores. So Shreyas Iyer was bought by Punjab Kings for Rs 26.75 crore. However, in this mega auction, Indian wicketkeeper batsman Jitesh Sharma has left behind players like Rishabh Pant and Shreyas Iyer in terms of salary increase percentage. Let us tell you that in this auction, Jitesh had kept his base price at Rs 2 crore, but in the IPL 2024 season, his salary was Rs 20 lakh and he was seen playing for Punjab Kings. But in this mega auction, Jitesh was added to the IPL 2016 season’s runner-up Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) by paying a huge amount of Rs 11 crore. So this is a 5500 percent increase in Jitesh’s IPL salary. This increase has not been seen in the salary of any IPL player yet. Jitesh will play the role of finisher in RCB in IPL 2025 Let us tell you that Jitesh Sharma made his IPL debut for Punjab Kings in IPL 2022. So in the next two years the player’s strike rate was 163 and 156. However, IPL 2024 was a forgettable one for the player. Last season, he was able to score only 187 runs at a meager strike rate of 131. So after the retirement of Dinesh Karthik, RCB has included Jitesh in the team as a finisher.

Phil Salt has the ability to give his team a good start by batting explosively in the powerplay. Instead of Venkatesh, the franchise should have included Phil Salt in its team.
Shreyas Iyer to captain Mumbai in Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy (SMAT): Reports
Tournament is starting from 23rd November Shreyas Iyer (Pic Source-X) Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) has reportedly appointed Shreyas Iyer as the captain for the upcoming Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy (SMAT), while Prithvi Shaw has also got a place in the squad. The senior selection committee, which will start from November 23, took this decision on Sunday. So, if Indian Express reports regarding this decision are to be believed, then the appointment of giving the responsibility of captaincy to Iyer has been done because of his impressive track record in the shortest format. It is noteworthy that in IPL 2024, Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) won the title for the third time under the captaincy of Iyer. If this happens, then Mumbai Ranji team captain Ajinkya Rahane can be seen playing under the captaincy of Iyer. On the other hand, opener Prithvi Shaw has also returned in the tournament starting from November 23, who was not included in Mumbai’s Ranji team due to fitness reasons. So due to injuries in this team, some star players have not got a place. This season, Shivam Dubey, Musheer Khan and fast bowler Tushar Deshpande will not be able to play in SMAT from Mumbai due to injury. But despite all this, there is a lot of depth in batting and bowling in the Mumbai team selected for the tournament. The team has experienced players like Shams Mulani and Shardul Thakur, who provide balance to the team in both areas. Full squad of Mumbai team for Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy (SMAT) 2024-25 Prithvi Shaw, Ayush Mhatre, Angkrish Raghuvanshi, Jai Bista, Shriraj Gharat, Ajinkya Rahane, Shreyas Iyer, Suryansh Shedge, Ishan Moolchandani, Siddhesh Lad, Hardik Tamore (wk), Akash Anand (wk), Sairaj Patil, Akash Parkar, Shams Mullani. , Himanshu Singh, Sagar Chhabria, Shardul Thakur, Mohit Awasthi, Sylvester D’Souza, Royston Dias, Yogesh Patil, Harsh Tanna, Irfan Umair, Vinayak Bhoir, Kritik Hanagwadi, Shashank Attard, Junaid Khan.

This time IPL auction is going to be held in Jeddah on 24th and 25th November.

All the 10 franchises involved in this auction would like to purchase players and complete their respective remaining teams. On the other hand, before the start of this auction, former Indian captain and opening batsman Sunil Gavaskar has given a big statement regarding Shreyas Iyer. Gavaskar says that KKR can still bid for his services. It is noteworthy that under the captaincy of Iyer, KKR had won the IPL title of the year 2024. However, the franchise has not retained him due to disagreement over the amount being retained. KKR has retained Rinku Singh, Andre Russell, Varun Chakravarthy, Sunil Narine, Harshit Rana and Ramandeep Singh. Sunil Gavaskar gave a big statement Let us tell you that before the IPL 2025 auction, Gavaskar, while discussing with Star Sports, said on the Game Plan show – Last year (IPL 2024) when KKR won, Shreyas Iyer was the captain. As I said earlier for Rishabh Pant, sometimes there can be disagreement regarding fees. Gavaskar further said- However, I also think that after Shreyas Iyer comes in the auction, KKR can also bid for his services. If KKR doesn’t bid, I think Delhi will do it. Gavaskar further said about the star Indian wicketkeeper batsman Rishabh Pant, who was released from Delhi Capitals, that Delhi would like him, because if Rishabh Pant is not in their team, then they will also have to find a captain. So, I think Delhi will definitely try to use the RTM card or bring Rishabh Pant back to their team in the auction.

‘It would have been nice to have been in the list’, Venkatesh Iyer expressed pain over not being retained in KKR
KKR released some key players, including Venkatesh Iyer, ahead of the 2025 season Venkatesh Iyer. (Photo Source: IPL/BCCI) Kolkata Knight Riders did not include Venkatesh Iyer in their retention, even though the all-rounder has played an important role for the team in the last three seasons, especially in 2024. He scored 370 runs in 15 matches last season, in which Shreyas Iyer’s team won the title. KKR defeated Sunrisers Hyderabad in the final. At the same time, before the 2025 season, KKR released some key players, because according to the rules only six players can be retained. KKR preferred Rinku Singh, Varun Chakravarthy, Sunil Narine, Andre Russell, Harshit Rana and Ramandeep Singh. Now Venkatesh Iyer has reacted to KKR’s retention. He said that he would have liked to be in the retention list, but he understands KKR’s strategy. He described KKR as his home and favorite IPL team and expressed hope that he would play for them again in the 2025 season if selected in the auction. KKR’s retention has been very good – Venkatesh Iyer Speaking to RevSportz, Venkatesh said, KKR’s retention has been very good. I think he has covered 14-16 overs easily and with the bat he has covered about five positions. So, they had pretty good retention, but I would have loved to be on that list. KKR has given me a big opportunity and I have given everything for KKR and beyond cricket. There is also something called emotion. “This is a family,” he said. There are a lot of emotions. It brings tears to my eyes to see that my name is not in the retention list, but I am a practical person. I understand how it works. I was one of the players retained in 2022 and I know how it feels to be retained and left out. So, I think KKR have done brilliantly, I am really happy about it. I would love to be there and the doors are open. If my auction goes well, I will probably play for the team I like the most.
