The date of retention for IPL 2025 is coming closer. While on the one hand, the players are on their toes, the teams are also busy making their plans. Many players are still waiting for a phone call from the franchise two days before the retention. Also, some have been told that they are being retained by the team this time. Meanwhile, who will be retained and who will not, is a matter of later, but before that, you must know how much purse is left with which team right now i.e. before the retention.
This time the purse of the teams in the auction will be Rs 120 crore
Last time when the auction was held for IPL, the purse of the teams was kept at Rs 100 crore, that is, from this, the teams could buy all their players. Even after this, some teams prepared their entire squad and saved a lot of money. This time the purse has also been increased from Rs 100 crore to Rs 120 crore, which is a direct increase of 20 percent. However, the money given to the players who will be released by the teams will also be directly added to the purse.
Delhi Capitals has the highest purse at the moment
Talking about the present, Delhi Capitals has the most money left in its purse. The team still has Rs 9 crore 90 lakh left. That is, the team built its entire squad very economically and also saved money. On the other hand, if we talk about the team that saved the least money, then it is Rajasthan Royals. The team spent money lavishly on its players during the auction, which is why the team has only Rs 20 lakh left. That is, the team will have to release some expensive players this time, only then will some money come into its purse.
How much money is left in the purse of which team?
This was about the teams with the highest and lowest purse, but you should also know about the other teams. If we talk about the five-time champion team CSK, then this team has a full one crore rupees left at this time. Gujarat Titans still have Rs 7 crore and 85 lakhs left. If we talk about KKR i.e. Kolkata Knight Riders, then this team has Rs 1 crore 35 lakhs left at this time. LSG has only Rs 95 lakhs left in its purse. Mumbai Indians also have Rs 1 crore 50 lakhs left in their purse. Punjab Kings still have Rs 4 crore 15 lakhs left. RCB has Rs 2 crore and 85 lakhs left. At the same time, Sunrisers Hyderabad has Rs 3 crore 20 lakhs left.
This is how the purse calculation will be done
Actually, if all the teams get Rs 120 crore to spend from here, then first of all the price of the players to be retained will be reduced from it. Suppose a team retains only one player and fixes his price at Rs 20 crore, then when the team goes to the field for auction, it will have only Rs 100 crore to buy new players. Now you might be understanding more easily.
