When will the IPL Retention Policy be announced..!?
While the announcement of the retention policy for the IPL series has been delayed, it has been reported that the team management will be given more time to announce the retention list. Meanwhile, the owners of the teams are confused about how the retention policy will be. While the mega auction for the IPL series is scheduled to take place in December, a consultative meeting of IPL owners was held at the end of July. Various team managers also gave a lot of opinions in that consultation meeting. It was said that the bcci would make decisions based on these comments.
Jay Shah had said that the bcci will announce the IPL retention rules by the end of August. However, the IPL retention rules were not released till the second week of September. In this situation, the bcci General Committee meeting will be held on september 29. The IPL retention rules are likely to be released after the meeting is over. Although the IPL General Committee has nothing to do with the IPL retention rules, we have to wait till the end of September. bcci officials also said that it is likely to take another 10 days to release the IPL retention rules. They said it may take up to 2 weeks. Therefore, october 15 is the last day for the team management to give the final match of the retained players. Currently, the IPL retention rules are not released yet. It is said that this will give the team management more time to announce the list of retained players. As far as IPL retention is concerned there are 4 players to be retained and 2 RTM opportunities to be given. Also, 3 retention and 3 RTM opportunities and 5 retention and 2 RTM opportunities are also available. Apart from that, there is a possibility that the old rule requested by the CSK team will be reinstated. Players who have retired from international cricket for 5 years can be considered uncapped players. This will enable CSK to retain dhoni for a lower fee. It is said that not only the bcci but also the broadcasters are likely to be behind this decision. Also, it has been reported that the purse value will be given an additional Rs.10 crore this year. Due to this, the owners of IPL teams are in confusion. Because it is significant that the wages of star players will increase.
