The 35-year old mentioned that "cricket fans love consistency, but shuffling things up make it interesting". This remark has now sparked a debate, as it seems like Jay Shah has hinted towards major changes for the IPL 2025 mega auction.

Here's What Jay Shah Said During An Exclusive Interview With Times Of India

On 'Impact Player' Hindering All-Rounders' Role In IPL:

"Your take. We had a long chat with the franchise owners in the recent meeting we had. The impact player rule has its pros and cons. The negative is that it makes the allrounder's role redundant. The positive is it creates a spot for an Indian player to showcase his talent. We should also think about the broadcaster, who is paying a lot of money. But as an administrator for me, the game is bigger. We will decide in a few days."

On Updates Related To Mega Auction And Player Retention For IPL 2025:

"We have heard everyone out. Now, the decision rests on us. We must take the majority view on it. But even the minority view is important. The teams that are settled do not want a mega auction. Those franchises that have an unsettled team, want a mega auction. As a cricket fan, I feel consistency is important, but shuffling things up makes it interesting and helps in growing the game."

On IPL Potentially Harming Sides That Contest In WTC Final:

"The team didn't reach late for previous WTC finals. We had no choice. From now on, we will be having a 15-day gap between the end of IPL and the WTC final. But we should also appreciate the fact that we have qualified for the final twice."
