As 2022 approaches its end, fans are already anticipating what could transpire in the forthcoming season of the Indian Premier League (IPL). Before the actual action commences in late March or early April, the franchises have a lot of planning to do when they set out for a bidding war at the auction table later this month.
While the auction this year will not be a mega affair like it was ahead of IPL 2022, the one-day event would still have a lot of significance as all the 10 participating teams will have to relook their balance, having released a few players and retaining others beforehand. Some of the players like Kieron Pollard and Dwayne Bravo will be seen in different roles in the upcoming season as they have retired as players but will continue to serve their respective franchises- the Mumbai Indians and Chennai Super Kings- in a coaching capacity.
It is in this context that the auction becomes crucial since quite often captains and management are left crying over spilled milk over a player they couldn't bag in auction or falling short of resources when the crunch moment arrives.
