Of homecomings and new beginnings
The New Indian Express Bengaluru
|November 25, 2024
THE 2025 IPL auction was always going to be about new beginnings.
Everyone knew as much from the moment Rishabh Pant, Shreyas Iyer and KL Rahul were not retained by the respective franchises. But the opening day of the spectacle happening in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, also showed why it was also going to be one of homecomings.
Punjab Kings and Lucknow Super Giants broke the bank for Pant and Shreyas as they went for ₹27 and ₹26.75 crore, respectively, becoming the two most expensive players in the history of the tournament. The other star, KL Rahul, in a surprising way, went only for ₹14 crore to Delhi Capitals. As things stand, at least two of them are expected to lead the respective franchises but cannot be surprised if all three do.
