The IPL franchises have officially released their eagerly awaited roster ahead of the 2025 player auction scheduled to take place in Riyadh on November 24 and 25.
Attention now shifts to the marquee players who have been released by the ten teams ahead of this key event.
The deadline for all ten franchises to finalize their retention list was extended to 5:30 pm IST from the earlier cut-off time of 5:00 pm IST.
Who is a capless player?
A cricketer is considered disabled if he has not played for his national team in any international format (T20I, ODI or Test). In the Indian context, a player who has not been part of the national team in the last five years or does not have a central BCCI contract is also classified as disabled.
