Players retained by CSK in last IPL auction using RTM

The return of the Right to Match (RTM) card is a significant advantage for the Chennai Super Kings in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 mega auction.

The Right to Match (RTM) card is making a comeback in the Indian Premier League (IPL) mega auction after being absent since the IPL 2022 season. Previously utilized in the IPL 2018 mega auction, the RTM card allows franchises greater flexibility in retaining players. For the IPL 2025 mega auction, teams can retain a maximum of six players, either directly or by using the RTM card during the auction. This strategic option provides franchises the opportunity to solidify their rosters while navigating the competitive auction landscape.
