NEW DELHI: The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is looking at the last week of November to host the Indian Premier League (IPL) mega auction and November 30 has emerged as the likely date. Nothing has been finalised on the date yet but the last week of the month has been identified as the ideal window. The discussions are underway on the venue and while many options are being discussed, there is a possibility of the Indian cricket board hosting it in Dubai.
The ten franchises are already in a huddle ahead of the mega auction and are in the final stages of sealing their retentions. IPL 2024 finalists Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) are leading the way as they have already identified Heinrich Klaasen, Pat Cummins and Abhishek Sharma as their three priorities and Travis Head, Nitish Kumar Reddy are also in the scheme of things.
