The window for the same has been reduced by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) (between December 15 and 19).
The Women’s Premier League (WPL) auction, which is expected to take place on December 9, will notably take place before the IPL sale.
Why is this story important?
It is thought that the IPL auction will take place in Dubai, even though the franchises have not yet received official notice from the BCCI.
Notably, Kochi conducted the auction last year despite Istanbul being on the cricket board’s standby list.
On December 23, a one-day mini-auction was held at the Grand Hyatt Hotel in Kochi, Kerala.
How is the trade window doing?
Even though the IPL trade window is still open, there hasn’t been much player swapping between the franchises thus far.
As the three-year window comes to a close with the next edition, the one for the 2025 season will be a massive auction.
As a result, the franchises won’t be making many big changes during the current trade window.
CSK captured a record-tying fifth IPL championship.
Chennai Super Kings (CSK), captained by MS Dhoni, defeated Gujarat Titans in the final to win a record-tying fifth IPL championship in May.
On the very last ball, Ravindra Jadeja hit a boundary that claimed the title, giving the Yellow Army victory. Rain stopped play, so they hunted down a revised target of 171.
Dhoni became only the second captain in IPL history to win five championships with this.
