The highly anticipated Day 2 of the IPL 2025 auction is set to feature several marquee players who remained unsold on Day 1 and fresh talent entering the auction pool. Franchises are expected to engage in intense bidding wars to complete their squads with key players in specific roles.
Star Players in Focus
Several high-profile cricketers are among those likely to be the focus of bidding:
- Ben Stokes: With his proven track record in IPL and international cricket, Stokes is expected to fetch a high bid if picked.
- Shakib Al Hasan: The Bangladeshi all-rounder remains a valuable asset for teams seeking depth in both batting and bowling.
- Chris Lynn: Known for his explosive batting, Lynn’s availability could add power to the top order of any team.
Uncapped and Emerging Players
Day 2 will also feature lesser-known but promising players from domestic cricket and international leagues. Teams often scout for hidden gems at this stage to bolster their squad depth within budget.
Key Areas for Teams
Several teams, including the Mumbai Indians and Royal Challengers Bangalore, are still looking to fill gaps in their bowling and all-rounder slots. Teams with limited purse money will need strategic moves to outbid competitors without exceeding their budget.
