IPL Mega Auction: Teams Can Retain Up ‌to Five Players

The Indian Premier League (IPL)⁤ has decided ⁤on the number of players teams can​ retain ⁤in the upcoming mega star auction. According to reports, ‌a team can retain up to five players ahead of the mega auction, with no indication of ‍how many ⁢Indian players and how many foreign players can be retained.

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has​ reportedly decided to hold a two-day star auction in late November or early December. However, the BCCI still needs to clarify the decision on the‍ amount each team‍ can spend in the auction.‌ Additionally, the ‌BCCI needs to address Chennai Super Kings’ demand to consider players who⁣ have‌ retired ⁢from international cricket for five years as domestic players.

The BCCI meeting earlier discussed the retention rules, with some teams demanding⁢ the ability to retain five or six players. However, the BCCI argued that this​ type of ⁢rule would spoil the beauty of⁢ the IPL. The team owners claimed that it takes three years to build the best‍ team, but the BCCI maintained its stance on the retention rules.
