James Anderson Joins IPL 2025 Auction in Jeddah

News summary

The IPL 2025 mega auction is scheduled for November 24-25 in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, featuring a diverse pool of 1,574 players, including prominent Indian cricketers like Rishabh Pant, KL Rahul, and Shreyas Iyer, registering at a base price of Rs 2 crore. James Anderson, the legendary English pacer who retired from international cricket earlier this year, has registered for the IPL auction for the first time at a base price of Rs 1.25 crore, despite not playing T20 cricket since 2014. England's Test captain Ben Stokes has opted out of the auction due to workload management, making him ineligible for IPL 2026 due to new rules. The auction will fill 204 slots left vacant after 46 players were retained, with Punjab Kings having the largest auction purse of Rs 110.5 crore. Notably, no England players were retained by the IPL franchises, and Anderson's participation is seen as a potential mentorship opportunity, especially with teams like Chennai Super Kings, known for acquiring experienced players.
