The BCCI announced significant changes for the IPL 2025 auction that have generated excitement among franchises and fans alike. The new regulations state that any overseas player who does not register for the mega auction will be ineligible for the following year’s auction. This rule aims to ensure player commitment and streamline the auction process.

Additionally, a strict policy was introduced regarding player withdrawals. Any player who withdraws from the tournament after being selected will face a ban for two IPL seasons. This decision is intended to discourage last-minute pull-outs, which disrupt team strategies and planning.

 The IPL 2025 auction is scheduled for late November, likely to be held outside India, with Saudi Arabia as a potential venue.
