IPL 2025 Auction: Preparations for IPL 2025 have started. However, in the meantime, it is being awaited that the retention policy should be issued by the BCCI. After this, the strategy of the teams will start being made. Before the auction, former Team India player Irfan Pathan has given such a statement, which has created a sensation in the cricket world. He has said about a player that if he comes in the auction, then there can be a situation like a war in the auction between the teams to get him in their camp. 

IPL teams waiting for retention policy 

BCCI has not yet clarified how many players the teams can retain before the auction. Teams will prepare their retention and release lists only after the retention policy comes. Meanwhile, the player who is being discussed the most is former Mumbai Indians captain Rohit Sharma. The captaincy was taken from Rohit Sharma in IPL 2024 and given to Hardik Pandya. After that Rohit was seen as a player. Now the question is whether the MI team will retain Rohit to keep him with them or let him go. If Rohit is released, he will go to the auction. When we talked to former Indian team star player Irfan Pathan about this, he directly said that there would be a war. There is going to be a war between the team owners for Rohit. That is, there will be a bidding war for Rohit.

Rohit Sharma has immense experience of captaincy 

In a special conversation with India TV, Irfan Pathan said that Hitman Rohit brings a special thing with him and that is the experience of captaincy. Irfan said that every team would like to have a captain like Rohit. Apart from this, the teams will get a big advantage in that they will get an Indian player as captain, due to which they will be able to make the best use of the IMPACT PLAYER RULE. There has been a lot of talk about the impact player rule since last year. It is not clear yet whether this rule will continue this time as well, but if it remains, many teams can benefit. 

If Rohit’s fitness remains good then the matter is a hit 

Rohit Sharma retired from this format immediately after winning the T20 World Cup 2024 title. However, he will still play IPL. Meanwhile, Team India has many matches left before the auction. The question is also whether Rohit’s performance in the matches to be held from now till the auction can increase or decrease his price. When Irfan Pathan was questioned about this, he clearly said that not. He said that everyone knows what the Hitman can do with the bat. Yes, there is one thing on which everyone will be looking and that is fitness. If Rohit is fit then the matter is hit. From Irfan Pathan’s statement, it seems that if Rohit comes to the auction, then the crown of the most expensive player Pat Cummins and Mitchell Starc will be destroyed in a few minutes.
