The IPL 2025 Mega Auction is heading into its crucial Day 2, with several franchises still looking to finalize their squads by targeting key players. Here’s a summary of the remaining purse and current squad details for all ten teams:
- Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) lead with a purse of Rs 30.65 crore. They have secured only 9 players, including 3 overseas, leaving ample room for further additions.
- Mumbai Indians (MI) follow closely with Rs 26.10 crore. Having acquired 9 players with just 1 overseas recruit, MI is likely to focus on international talent.
- Punjab Kings are left with Rs 22.50 crore and have a balanced squad of 12 players. They have the flexibility to bring in more overseas players.
- Gujarat Titans have Rs 17.50 crore remaining and a well-rounded squad of 14 players. They might strengthen specific areas in their lineup.
- Rajasthan Royals and Kolkata Knight Riders are in similar positions, with Rs 17.35 crore and Rs 10.05 crore, respectively. Both have squads of 11-13 players, with gaps in their overseas slots.
- Chennai Super Kings, Delhi Capitals, and Lucknow Super Giants have between Rs 13.80 crore and Rs 15.60 crore, giving them enough flexibility to add quality players.
- Sunrisers Hyderabad has the smallest remaining purse, just Rs 5.15 crore, which will require more strategic bids to complete their squad.
Day 2 promises to be critical as each franchise aims to finalize their roster with targeted, possibly bold, moves.
