What is IPL GC and their role in IPL retention rules?

The IPL GC plays a very vital role in making important decisions such as IPL retention policies, auction dates and venues.

The IPL GC stands for the Indian Premier League Governing Council. This council is responsible for overseeing all aspects of the IPL, including IPL retention rules, regulations, and overall management of the league. They make key decisions such as player retention policies, auction dates, and venues.

When is IPL GC meeting?

The IPL GC meeting is scheduled to meet on Saturday, in Bengaluru to finalize crucial decisions for the upcoming 2025 IPL season. A member of the council confirmed the meeting to India Today, stating that the notice for the meeting was quite short, but all members are now gathered in the city to participate.

The meeting, expected to take place today at the Four Seasons Hotel, will cover several important topics, including retention rules, the auction venue, and the size of the retention purse.

Probable changes in IPL retention rules

One of the major decisions on the table is the retention policy for IPL teams. Reports suggest that the council is considering allowing teams to retain 5–6 players ahead of the 2025 mega auction, a decision that could benefit teams like Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Mumbai Indians (MI), which have invested heavily in their core players.

For example, Mumbai Indians could retain top players such as Rohit Sharma, Hardik Pandya, Suryakumar Yadav, and Jasprit Bumrah, while CSK might secure their stalwarts like Ravindra Jadeja, Ruturaj Gaikwad, and MS Dhoni.
