IPL 2025 mega auction - When and where the grand event will take place

The final retention period for cricketers in the IPL is approaching. For this reason, the IPL Mega Auction has caught the attention of sports lovers from India. The event is centred around 10 teams finalising their own squads before the end. What cricketers will be included in the teams will have to be taken into consideration by anyone placing bets at Dafabet.

The auction was one of the most anticipated back in May, when the 2024 season ended. At that time, the Kolkata Knight Riders defeated Sunrisers Hyderabad in the final match and became the league champions for the third time.

The IPL governing body announced the rules for cricketers for 2025-2027 only in early autumn. The 10 franchise were given a little over a month to decide on the squads. There were many rumours about the number of athletes who would be allowed to stay. This was due to Arun Dhumal, the league chairman, announcing a mega auction before the start of the 2025 tournament.

The rules under which the players will be retained are clear. However, the exact dates, venues, where the event will be held are not yet known. Most likely, the mega auction will be held in a different country for the second year in a row.

Basic information about the IPL 2025 auction

The 2025 auction is aimed at revising cricket line-ups. Clubs can retain up to six athletes. The auction is designed to balance continuity and excitement for new players. The most interesting aspect for the fans is the rumours that surround the exchange of cricketers. This is especially true for celebrities like Rohit Sharma.

There have been reports about possible deals related to KKR. There were rumours that the club intends to buy Suryakumar Yadav from Mumbai Indians. However, this turned out to be a mere speculation that manifested itself due to the league’s trading policy. The rules prohibit trading before the auction. This means that information about any trades is highly likely to be false.

When will the league mega auction take place

The league auction will take two days, just like in 2022. The event will take place in November. The mega auction is highly likely to take place in the last days of the month. Earlier, it was reported that the event would be held on the 23rd, 24th, and 30th of November.

Not too long ago, a report revealed that the mega auction might be held on 24 or 25 November. The event is likely to coincide with the first India vs. Australia Border Gavaskar Trophy Test, which will start on 22 November in Perth.

Where the IPL 2025 auction will Be held

The 2022 event was held in Bangalore at a private hotel. The 2023 and 2024 auctions were held in Kerala, Emirates. The 2024 event was the first to be held outside India, in the Emirati capital.

The 2025 mega auction too will be held outside the country. The capitals being considered are:

• Singapore
• England
• Emirates

A published report by CricBuzz has revealed that there is a high probability of the auction being held in the Arabian city of Riyadh. It is advisable for anyone planning to bet on cricket at Dafa bet to read the report .

When the final hold period before the league auction comes to an end

The final retention deadline is the last day of October. All 10 squads will report the list of athletes who have been retained and released on this date. It is possible that this will happen live on JioCinema, Star Sports.

The final date could be decided at around 5pm India time, just like last time. In 2024, one could watch the real drama when Hardik Pandya transitioned from Mumbai Indians to Gujarat Titans. Cameron Green’s move to Royal Challengers Bengaluru was also interesting to watch. The swap deals involved payment in cash only.

Whether there is a trade window provided before the IPL 2025 league auction

There is no any indication about the trading window before the new tournament. It usually becomes available a month before the mega auction. Seven days before the event, the window closes. It reopens the day after the mega auction, lasts for about a month before the season starts.

The trading window ensures a successful start for new lineups, equal competition. This feature of the auction ensures that no one has a strong advantage provided by the transition of cricketers prior to the event. The trading window attracts the attention of clubs and fans alike. Everyone is wondering how the squads will develop tactics in such an environment that limits the trading opportunities.The mega auction will take place very soon, and keeping an eye on how it plays out is recommended for anyone planning to make cricket predictions in India on the Dafabet website. Pay special attention to the strongest cricketers – the teams they will be included in will get a serious boost.
