3 big Indian players who could enter the IPL 2025 mega auction

With the IPL 2025 mega auction discussion heating up and many rumors coming as some major Indian names are expected to go under the hammer. But who are these quality names?

The IPL retention topic is getting heated up as numerous speculations are taking big stage. Since it’s a mega auction, we are expecting that many turnarounds are going to happen, as many reports are already coming in from Rohit Sharma’s future with MI to whether MS Dhoni will play in the upcoming season for CSK or not? Many things are still not confirmed, and chances are making the upcoming IPL auction very interesting. Amid all this buzz, what is gaining popularity is that there are a few names that could go under the hammer. Although nothing is confirmed yet, there are rumors that many big names may not get retained by their respective franchises. But who are these players? Here are three top Indian names who may go in the IPL 2025 mega auction.

KL Rahul

Possibly the biggest name that has garnered attention since the last IPL season is KL Rahul, especially after LSG lost the game against SRH by 10 wickets. And then we saw the heated chat between Sanjiv Goenka and KL Rahul, which came under the spotlight. Since then, discussions have started about what’s next for Rahul. Talks have also come that LSG is looking to see how the retention policy structure is, and now, with the new rules all over, the 5+1 retention policy is here. Which means the franchise can pick five players first, and then one can be brought back into the team via RTM. However, looking at the current scenario, things seem difficult for Rahul to return to LSG, as the management may take some calls or revamp the team. It will be interesting to see how it unfolds for them, but Rahul’s chances are real that this superstar may go under the hammer at auction.

Rishabh Pant

A few months back, this superstar wicketkeeper-batter for Delhi Capitals cleared all the rumors about him leaving DC. However, a few days ago, Pant took Twitter by storm by saying that if he enters the auction, he will be interested to see what price tag he can get. Also, to nurture this topic, DC could be looking for a new captain, and if that happens, we may see Rishabh Pant looking for a new IPL jersey. But as mentioned, 31st October is the last date for submission, and things will get clearer soon.

Shreyas Iyer

The captain who led KKR to the IPL trophy in 2024, although his performances came under pressure, is Iyer. His recent domestic performances also do not give strong hope that he can return to KKR. The chances are slim since the team will look for a captain they can invest in. Not long ago, there were rumors that KKR was looking to trade Shreyas Iyer and get Suryakumar Yadav into the team from MI, but Mumbai camp themselves cleared the rumors. Now, since KKR has many big names they can consider bringing back into the team first, from Sunil Narine to Andre Russell, who have been reliable performers over the years, the chances are extremely high that this skipper of KKR may get released and go at the IPL 2025 mega auction.
