The auction for the 14th season of the Indian Premier League will be held in Chennai tomorrow, i.e., February 18. Despite the auction being a mini-auction, expect some teams to engage in bidding wars for some top-notch names in T20 cricket.
Given its history, expect IPL 2021 auction day to be a life-changing one for many Indian and overseas players as franchises are highly likely to up the ante with respect to their financial prowess.
