NEW DELHI: The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is likely to announce new player retention rules ahead of the Indian Premier League (IPL) mega auction soon. There are also reports that the much-awaited IPL auction is likely to be held outside India in November.
According to a report by the Indian Express, IPL franchises may be allowed to retain up to five players, with the Right to Match (RTM) option being removed. This change will benefit teams like Mumbai Indians, who could retain key players such as Rohit Sharma, Jasprit Bumrah, Suryakumar Yadav, and Hardik Pandya.
