The Indian Premier League (IPL) auction table is where franchises are made or broken. Every decision—whether it’s selecting a player or letting one go—can have a massive impact on a team’s success. Ahead of the IPL 2025 auction, franchises were required to release players. While some made smart choices, others let go of players who are now turning out to be match-winners in the ongoing season.

Shreyas Iyer’s release from KKR came as a surprise, especially since he was the captain who led them to the IPL 2024 title. However, KKR chose to let him go. He was later picked up by Punjab Kings (PBKS) for a massive sum of ₹26.75 crore, the second-highest bid in the auction. Iyer has since scored 263 runs in eight matches, including three half-centuries.

Prasidh Krishna
