IPL Auction 2023
IPL Auction
The Indian Premier League (IPL) is a professional Twenty20 cricket league in India contested during March or April and May of every year by eight teams representing eight different cities in India. The league was founded by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) in 2007, and is considered the most popular Twenty20 cricket league in the world.
The IPL operates on a franchise system, similar to other professional sports leagues in the world. Each year, an auction is held in which the eight franchises can bid on players to join their team for the upcoming season. The teams have a certain amount of money that they can use to bid on players, and the player goes to the highest bidder. The IPL auction is a key event in the cricket calendar and attracts a lot of attention from fans and media. It is a chance for teams to build their squads for the upcoming season and for players to find a place in the league.
With the rise of league cricket, IPL has become the biggest cricketing event in the world. So far, 15 editions of the tournament have been held. The best cricketers from around the world come to India to play in the IPL. There is a lot of money involved in the league because of its commercial aspects.
This money is distributed among the players through the player auction system. Different players go under the hammer as teams select their players for the next season.
The IPL auction is the main reason behind such large sums of money paid out to different players. IPL auction serves as a huge attraction for the players worldwide, as they want to play in the IPL and earn handsomely.
Ahead of IPL 2023, teams had retained their key players while releasing others. As a result, a mini auction is scheduled to finalize the squads for IPL 2023.
