Big Changes In IPL Auction? Report Says "Increasing Retentions Will..."
IPL 2024 was the final season in the three-year cycle decided by the tournament organisers and it means that the next season will see a mega-auction. The franchises will be allowed to retain a limited number of players with a majority of them going under the hammer in a near-complete overhaul. However, there was some chatter over the retention rules with speculations over big changes to the auction rules. A report by News18 has claimed that the BCCI is looking to stay with four retentions per team or three retentions and one Right To Match (RTM) card for the franchises. The report claimed that the increase in retention slots did not find much support from the franchises.
