Before IPL 2025, a meeting was organized between BCCI and all the franchises regarding the upcoming mega auction, in which all the team owners put forward their views. In this meeting, there was a lot of discussion about retained, RTM and uncapped players, but BCCI will reach a conclusion by the end of August keeping everyone’s suggestions in mind.
But if before the IPL mega auction, it is being heard in the news that some veterans will leave their old team, then according to some rules, they will hardly be seen back in their team. Let’s take a look at some of the most expensive players in the upcoming IPL auction. Neither Kohli’s nor Bumrah’s name is in this list, but here are 3 players can break Starc’s record of 24.75 crore.

3 Players Could be Most Expensive Buys in IPL 2025 Auction
1- Jake Fraser McGurk
In IPL 2024, Delhi Capitals included Australia’s Jake Fraser McGurk in their team and when he got the chance, he also batted in a rapid style. His batting not only impressed the players but the fans of the Delhi team also became fans of his batting. However, if the Delhi team does not retain him, then due to his explosive style, any other team can rain money on him.
2- Heinrich Klaasen
Sunrisers Hyderabad’s explosive batsman Heinrich Klaasen can also be a part of the auction this time. It is being speculated that according to the IPL rules, the team can retain only 2 foreign players. In such a situation, the Hyderabad team is in a dilemma because it would like to retain Travis Head along with captain Pat Cummins. In such a situation, if Klaasen comes into the auction, then several crores can be bid on him too.
3- Rohit Sharma
Former Mumbai Indians captain Rohit Sharma can also distance himself from his team before the upcoming IPL. According to reports, Rohit Sharma can part ways with the Mumbai team and join some other team. If he is not traded and he becomes a part of the auction, then crores of rupees can rain on him. He can break Mitchell Starc’s record of around 25 crores in the auction.
