1,214 players have been shortlisted to 590 for the upcoming Indian Premier League 2022 mega auction to be conducted on February 12-13 in Bengaluru.
As compared to 228 capped players, there are 355 uncapped players and seven from Associate Nations which will take part in what could be the last IPL mega auction.
While fans of the biggest T20 tournament in the world will experience the thrills of a mega auction after four years, a 10-team IPL will be played after as many as 11 years. The last time when more than eight teams participated in the IPL was in 2013. The addition of two new teams will make the auction process all the more interesting this time round.
With teams allowed to retain only four players before this auction, expect each one of them to participate actively in this auction unlike some regular auctions in the past. An affirmative ramification of the same is some top-notch Indian and overseas names entering the IPL 2022 auction.
