The mega auctions of the Indian Premier League’s 11th edition will be held in Bengaluru on January 27 and 28.
The news was confirmed by a senior BCCI official.
“Since most of the capped players will be back in auction, it will be a mega auction that will be held in Bengaluru on January 27 and 28. Since Bengaluru has been hosting all previous auctions, that was the choice of franchises,” a senior BCCI official told PTI on Tuesday.
This year’s auction will see teams having an increased budget of ₹80 crore from previous ₹66 crore.
In all five players can be retained by a franchise, which includes two Right to Match cards.
