Actually, IPL 2025 is going to be a mega auction. Mega auction takes place every 3 years in which teams get a chance to release players and buy their favorite players again. How many players can teams retain in the IPL mega auction? Teams can retain only three Indian-capped players, a maximum of two overseas and one uncapped Indian player. As per this retention policy, BCCI has suggested retaining 3 players and using the Right to Match card for one player for the IPL Auction 2025. What is the RTM (Right To Match) card used in the IPL 2025 Mega Auction? Let us tell you that the teams playing IPL can retain players in two ways before the auction. If we give you an example, the first option the team has is to directly retain the players. The second option is Right to Match. Let us tell you how a team can use RTM. Under this rule of BCCI, any team can buy the player whom they had not retained. Let’s assume, Mumbai Indians did not retain Rohit Sharma and Chennai bought Rohit Sharma in the mega auction. But Mumbai wants to keep its player back in its team. So what will happen in such a situation? In this situation, Mumbai Indians (MI) will play the RTM card and pay that much money to Chennai Super Kings for Rohit Sharma and include Rohit in their team. Reports suggest that not all franchises are in favor of increasing the Right to Match card. Some teams want to retain 6-8 of their players, while some teams do not want this. In such a situation, if the retention list is increased then it will not make any sense. Therefore, the BCCI has said that there will be no changes in the IPL 2025 Retention Policy.

The Shreyas Iyer-led team won the trophy by defeating Sunrisers Hyderabad in the final. This season has just ended and the franchises have started preparing for the 18th edition of the tournament. Let us tell you that the first mega auction of IPL 2025 will be organized, in which each team will be allowed to retain limited players. The remaining players will have to come into the auction pool. Now famous commentator Harsha Bhogle has given his opinion on this issue. He believes that teams should be given the option to retain six to eight players instead of four. Apart from this, he asked the team to retain the stars they have discovered. Know what Harsha Bhogle said Harsha Bhogle said in a video on his YouTube channel, If we can maintain the sanctity of the purse then I think we should have six to eight retentions. KKR’s Venky Mysore has come up with a very practical suggestion, which is that you should be allowed to retain players if they have a fair market value, otherwise no retention but eight right-to-match cards. I know this will change the dynamics of the auction drastically, but it is something worth considering. At the same time, after the end of IPL 2024, Harsha Bhogle recently revealed his best playing XI. With four foreign players in the team, he picked Virat Kohli, Sunil Narayan, Sanju Samson and many other stars in his best XI. Bhogle’s Best XI Virat Kohli, Sunil Narine, Sanju Samson, Riyan Parag, Nicholas Pooran, Andre Russell, Dinesh Karthik, Jasprit Bumrah, Varun Chakravarthy, Trent Boult, T Natarajan.
