Mallika Sagar will conduct the IPL 2025 mega auction in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.

Mallika Sagar will conduct the upcoming Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 mega auction in Jeddah on November 24 and 25. Mallika had conducted Women’s Premier League (WPL) auction in the past and replaced Hugh Edmeades as the auctioneer for the 2024 edition of the cash-rich league.
Mallika has an experience of over two decades as an auctioneer and will continue her association with the IPL, where she became the first female auctioneer last year. The IPL auctions have been conducted by only men in the past with the likes of Richard Madley, Hugh Edmeades and Charu Sharma controlling proceedings in the room.

BREAKING NEWS: #IPL 2025 Final Retentions

Prior to her experience at WPL and IPL, Mallika had conducted auction for the eighth edition of the Pro Kabaddi League (PKL).
All franchises are in a huddle ahead of the two-day event which will help them assemble a squad for the next cycle of the IPL which gets underway with the 2025 edition. The retentions are done, and now all teams are conducting their trials in India to finalise their potential shortlists/wishlists for the auction.
Franchises like Delhi Capitals, Rajasthan Royals, Mumbai Indians have had their rounds of trials and Royal Challengers Bengaluru, Lucknow Supergiants are likely to have theirs when the ongoing round of the Ranji Trophy ends on November 16.
As many as 1574 players have registered for the IPL mega auction and the list will be shortlisted before the names are presented to the ten teams in Jeddah. Every franchise can have a maximum of 25 players in their set-up and 204 slots will be up for grabs at the two-day event.
Plenty of high-profile Indian players like Rishabh Pant, Shreyas Iyer and KL Rahul will be in the auction pool and are expected to attract a lot of interest from teams looking for a captain.
