IPL 2025: The 18th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2025) will host a mega auction. All the IPL franchises will be only allowed to retain up to 4-5 players, and the remaining players will have to feature at the auction to find a new team.
That has made the whole scenario very interesting because every team has a great set of players. Some players who were with a high salary cap in the IPL 2024 might not be able to get the same amount.
But there are some others who might get way higher than the current salary they had with their IPL teams. Hence, here we will talk about such five players who had a salary of INR 20 lakhs in 2024 and can fetch even 10 crore at the IPL 2025 auction.
IPL 2025: Five Players with a 20-lakh salary can get more than 10 crore at the mega auction
5. Matheesha Pathirana
Matheesha Pathirana has become a key player for Chennai Super Kings in the IPL. The Sri Lankan pacer has been a death specialist for them in the IPL. There are chances that he might be retained, but if he is released, he will be a hot pick at the IPL 2025 auction. He brings some exceptional skills to the game, and that’s where everyone wants to have him on their side for even more than 10 crores.
4. Harshit Rana
Harshit Rana had a brilliant IPL 2024 season for KKR. He took a total of 19 wickets and was the joint-highest wicket-taker for his team. An Indian pacer is always on the list of every franchise, and with his current form, he can be a good buy and can break the banks of some teams.
3. Nitish Kumar Reddy
An Indian seam all-rounder is very rare. After Hardik Pandya, India have tried a few, but it didn’t work. But Nitish Kumar Reddy showed the glimpses in the IPL 2024 with the bat and the ball. He might not be retained by SRH because they have already a few more players to retain. And there are chances that Nitish, who was the Emerging player of IPL 2024, will get a massive price at the IPL 2025 auction.
2. Mayank Yadav
An Indian bowler with the ability to bowl over 150 km/h is even rare. Umran Malik looked promising but couldn’t carry on. But Mayank Yadav showed a great skillset for Lucknow Super Giants. The 22-year-old started with two MOTM performances and bowled the fastest delivery of the season. So he will be a hot pick at IPL 2025 auction, and the franchise can bid any amount on him.
1. Sai Sudharsan
Sai Sudharsan has been the best player for Gujarat Titans since he made his debut. He scored most runs for the franchise in the IPL 2024. He is another guy with a salary of INR 20 lakh. But his consistency in the IPL, might bring him more money at the IPL 2025 mega auction, and it could be even 10 crore.
