Scheduled for November 24-25, the IPL 2025 mega auction, which will be held in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, promises to be a spectacle filled with high stakes, intense bidding, and the potential for new records to be set.

In a show of admiration, Rahul’s former IPL team, Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB), expressed their amazement at a stunning straight drive he played against Pat Cummins.

From David Miller to Jos Butler, here is a list of a few heavyweights who could prompt franchises to raise their paddles multiple times in the IPL 2025 auction.

Rahul, who has been an opening batter over the past few seasons, could be an ideal candidate for the role. KKR might consider pairing him with Sunil Narine at the top of the order, maintaining the successful template from last year’s title-winning campaign.

KL Rahul, after parting ways with Lucknow Super Giants (LSG), has expressed openness to returning to Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) ahead of the IPL 2025 mega auction.

Despite a rich history, KKR has struggled for consistency in recent years, often reliant on a few standout performers. But after a decade-long trophy drought, it finally ended in IPL 2024.

Five Indian batters are expected to be in high demand at the IPL 2025 mega auction. KL Rahul, Ishan Kishan, Shreyas Iyer, Rahul Tripathi, and Angkrish Raghuvanshi are among the players on the list. Their ability to change the game quickly makes them valuable assets to any team.

RCB will step into the IPL 2025 mega auction with renewed hopes of being able to make a well-rounded squad who could help the franchise lift its maiden title. Can they target KL Rahul and Yuzvendra Chahal with Rs 83 crore purse?
