IPL 2025 mega auction is scheduled to take place on November 24 and 25. Team India’s wicketkeeper batsman Rishabh Pant can prove to be the most expensive player in this auction. There will be bidding on 577 players in this auction. The ten IPL teams have a purse of Rs 641.5 crore and 204 possible selections remain to be made. In such a situation, everyone’s eyes will be on Pant’s name. Punjab Kings have the highest among all the teams at Rs 110.50 crore while RCB has Rs 83 crore.
Let us tell you that Delhi Capitals have Rs 73 crore and Right to Match card, with which they can buy their former captain. However, it is understood that Pant does not want Delhi to use the RTM card because there was a rift in the separation relationship and Pant no longer considers himself a part of the team. He also said that my retention was not about money. This is certain. After which the biggest question is whether Pant will become the first Indian player to cross Rs 25 crore.
Whereas Chennai Super Kings or Mumbai Indians have only Rs 45 crore and they will not be in a position to buy him at this price. Punjab Kings, who are famous for changing the team every two years, have a lot of money and head coach Ricky Ponting would like to reunite with his favorite player. The base price of 81 players for the auction is Rs 2 crore. Current cricketers can cross the figure of one million dollars i.e. Rs 8.5 crore.
At the same time, Arshdeep Singh, who has taken 96 T20 International wickets so far, can also get a big bid. Punjab has RTM card but how far does it go? There will be a lot of demand for fast bowlers as almost all the star cricketers of India have been selected for the cup except Shreyas Iyer and KL Rahul. Iyer could be Delhi’s choice for captaincy.
The three possible captains for RCB, Kolkata Knight Riders and Lucknow Super Giants, Delhi Capitals and Punjab Kings could be Pant, Rahul or Iyer. Ishan Kishan will also be prominent among the Indian players but this time Mumbai Indians are not in a position to buy him for Rs 15 crore like last time. Eyes will also be on Mohammed Shami who is playing in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy.
