IPL Mega Auction: These three players can break all the records of the auction, will the bid exceed Rs 25 crore?

Cricket News Desk. Along with the Border Gavaskar Trophy, the eyes of the whole world are on the mega auction of IPL 2025. This year, teams like Delhi Capitals (DC), Rajasthan Royals (RR) and Mumbai Indians (MI) have taken important decisions regarding their star players. In such a scenario, the stage is set for a bidding war that could change the history of the IPL mega auction. Last year, Kolkata Knight Riders had bid Rs 24.75 crore, making Mitchell Starc the most expensive player in the history of the tournament. This time this record may be broken.

Shreyas Iyer
No one would have thought that the Kolkata Knight Riders franchise would let go the captain who made the team champion after 10 years. Shreyas Iyer, who was out of all three formats of the Indian team, had recently scored a double century in the Ranji Trophy. In his first captaincy for KKR, Shreyas Iyer took Delhi Capitals to the final for the first time in IPL history. In such a situation, teams in search of an explosive middle-order batsman and captain will be ready to shell out money to include Shreyas Iyer.

Rishabh Pant
The eight-year-old relationship between Delhi Capitals and Rishabh Pant has ended. The explosive wicketkeeper-batsman helped Team India win the T20 World Cup after a fatal accident, but the Delhi franchise has not retained its captain. Pant, who is only 27, has a long career ahead of him, so if he gets into Mitchell Starc's auction table for Rs. It will not be a surprise if the record of Rs 24.75 crore is broken.

jos buttler
English opener Jos Buttler, famous for his explosive starts, was not retained by RR. Butler has been the X factor of Rajasthan for the last several seasons. There could be stiff competition among the franchises to include England wicketkeeper-opening batsman Buttler. The English wicketkeeper, who is adept at changing the course of the match single-handedly, also has seven centuries in his name in the IPL. Teams that need a reliable opening batsman or captain can bet on Butler.
