The Indian Premier League 2025, 18th edition of the T20 extravaganza, will be a closely watched affair.

While teams were allowed a maximum of six retentions, including Right-To-Match option, the rest of the squad had to be formed via the auction. Some big names fetched massive sum and the bidding wars made the IPL 2025 all the more interesting. For the stats, Rishabh Pant turned out to be the costliest player ever sold in IPL auction history as he was picked by Lucknow Super Giants for a whopping INR 27 crore.

Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) stand as the third-most successful Indian Premier League (IPL) franchise at this point in time, having won three IPL titles, all featuring Gautam Gambhir in some capacity.

Ganguly was eventually not picked by KKR in the IPL 2011 mega auction. Former KKR team director Joy Bhattacharjya revealed the messages he received from angry fans when Ganguly wasn't picked, and the extent of team owner Shah Rukh Khan's involvement in the decision.
