IPL Auction 2025: Full List Of Sold And Unsold Players Revealed, Pant & Iyer Lead the Charts

The IPL Auction 2025 has set new records with Rishabh Pant and Shreyas Iyer becoming the most expensive players ever. Pant was snapped up by Lucknow Super Giants for ₹27 crore, surpassing Iyer's record-breaking ₹26.75 crore deal with Punjab Kings just moments earlier. This auction has seen significant spending, with teams eager to secure top talent.

Top Players and Teams

Arshdeep Singh was the first player sold, fetching ₹18 crore as Punjab Kings used their RTM card to outbid Sunrisers Hyderabad. Gujarat Titans acquired Kagiso Rabada for ₹10.785 crore and Jos Buttler for ₹15.75 crore. The auction, held over two days in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, began with marquee players like KL Rahul and Mohammed Shami expected to attract high bids.

The auction features 574 players, but only 84 will be bid on during the first day. On the second day, the franchises will nominate players for an accelerated auction process, followed by a final round for unsold players. Each team has specific goals based on their current squad composition.

Franchise Strategies

Punjab Kings have the largest budget at ₹110.5 crore, having retained only two players from last season. They also hold four RTM cards, more than any other team. In contrast, Kolkata Knight Riders and Rajasthan Royals have no RTM cards left after retaining six players each.

Mitchell Starc's previous record of ₹24.75 crore was broken by Iyer's deal this year. Starc was picked up by Delhi Capitals for ₹11.75 crore this time around. The competition among teams is fierce as they aim to build strong squads for the upcoming season.
