NEW DELHI: The IPL 2025 mega auction, held in Jeddah, marked a transformative phase for the league as all ten teams revamped their squads. With only six retentions allowed, franchises spent a staggering Rs 639.15 crore to acquire 182 players, including 62 overseas stars, during the two-day event.
This overhaul saw the end of several iconic long-term associations, with players like Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Rishabh Pant, and Jos Buttler switching teams.
