IPL Mega Auction 2025 Rules: What is Accelerated auction Process

With many things happening in the IPL auction as players are getting sold, what is it about the accelerated auction process that is gaining all the attention?

More than 50 players have already been sold, and now the IPL auction is almost complete. Initially, 577 players were listed in the camp, and now, slowly and steadily, 204 slots are filling up. Some teams are focusing on batters, while others are targeting bowlers. With so many things happening, the term accelerated process is gaining attention. But what exactly is the accelerated auction process in this ongoing mega-auction event? Let’s see it in detail.

What is Accelerated auction process

Since the list is long and the auction is only for two days, the fast-forward process will start soon. Usually, the accelerated auction phase will commence after the 117th player has been presented, transitioning into a faster-paced process. Swastik Chikara, listed at 118, will be the first uncapped player to feature in this phase. The accelerated auction is divided into two parts. In the first part, franchises will submit a list of their preferred players from the remaining pool (players numbered 118 to 577). These selected names will then be presented for bidding. The second part will focus on players who either remained unsold or were not presented during the initial phase of the accelerated auction. All these steps help streamline the auction process and make it easier.
