As per ESPNCricinfo, the final list of the players entering the auction pool will be prepared by mid-January. In the meantime, the two new sides, Ahmedabad and Lucknow, are expected to confirm their early bird three picks ahead of the auction by December 25. Also, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has yet to hand over the ownership to the CVC Capital Partners for Ahmedabad.
Some issues persist with CVC over its tie-ups with a couple of betting companies in Brazil and Italy. The BCCI will consult various experts, along with a High Court judge, to analyse the stature of CVC before formally handing it over to its Ahmedabad IPL ownership. The auction purse remains ₹90 crore, while adjustments in it have already been made post retentions, while more adjustments are to be made after the franchises draft the pre-auction list.
