IPL 2025 retentions / mega auction

Third_Man

State 12th Man
No England players retained today. Does that increase the liklihood that Buttler / Livingstone or Salt / Wood might have to play for Lancashire?

Also noticed this:

Players who pull out of the IPL at short notice will be banned from taking part in the following two seasons in a new rule introduced by the IPL.

The rule will impact any player who signs up for an auction and is picked, but pulls out before the start of the season if not for "injury or medical condition".

England players have a habit of doing this e.g. Gus Atkinson, Mark Wood, David Willey and Harry Brook were all among those to pull out of the IPL last year.

Are they less likley to put themselves forward?

Mega Auction sometime in November.

Stokes has not put his name forward.

Don't see Smith, Garry, Bairstow, Mo or Williamson getting deals. I doubt Rashid will either if he puts himself forward.

from the BBC website: England-qualified players in IPL 2025 auction:
Jos Buttler, Liam Livingstone, Harry Brook, Jonny Bairstow, Phil Salt, Sam Curran, Adil Rashid, Tom Kohler-Cadmore, Ben Duckett, James Vince, Moeen Ali, Will Jacks, Tom Banton, Sam Billings, Jordan Cox, Gus Atkinson, Tom Curran, Ollie Pope, Richard Gleeson, Reece Topley, Luke Wood, Leus du Plooy, Michael Pepper, Jacob Bethell, Brydon Carse, Dan Mousley, Jamie Overton, Olly Stone, Dan Worrall, Matthew Potts, John Turner, Dan Lawrence, James Anderson, Chris Jordan, Tymal Mills, David Payne, Benny Howell.

Root and (Mark) Wood not in the auction. Neither is Archer who was on the long (1574) list but not the short (574) list trimmed following consultation with the IPL teams.

Has Archer opted out to help him play Test cricket in 2025? Would he want to play Championship cricket early on to prove a point?

The Lancashire players must have been axed by the IPL.

Which where they? Luke Wood, Livingstone, Salt and Buttler are there.
Noticed Ollie Robinson was missing...

we'll never know because they only released the names of the short listed 574 not the long list of original hopefuls (1574).

Can't believe that for example Hurst with a BBL contract and a succesful summer in 2024 didn't put his name forward. I would have done in his position.
