Cricket fans, get ready for another season of high-voltage action! This IPL would be special for a lot of reasons. Firstly, IPL legend Rohit Sharma can possibly find a new team after serving Mumbai Indians for more than a decade.

Also, The ICC T20 World Cup just concluded, and many players, both Indian and of other nationalities, enjoyed the limelight at the highest stage of the game. Saurabh Netravalkar, Andre Ghouz, Fazal al Faruqi, Harry Brook, etc, are some great examples. Franchises would be looking out for them.

The wait for the much-anticipated TATA IPL 2025 schedule is finally over. We provide a comprehensive guide to everything you need to know about it.

Reliving IPL 2024

Before diving into the TATA IPL 2025 Schedule, let’s take a moment to reminisce about the thrilling IPL 2024. The Kolkata Knight Riders, led by the explosive batting of Sunil Narine and the fiery bowling of Mitchell Starc, emerged victorious. They were of course joined by their former skipper Gautam Gambhir, but this time as a mentor.

They defeated the strong Rajasthan Royals team under Sanju Samson, which had the likes of Jos Buttler and Trent Boult.

Young talents like Abhishek Sharma and Riyan Parag impressed everyone with their exceptional skills, putting pressure on established players. Travis Head was deadly in those flat Indian pitches, and Virat Kohli once again topped the Orange Cap list. However, fate did not change much for his team RCB, which once again failed to reach the finals of the IPL.

This season was a batter’s paradise, with scores exceeding 250 runs becoming commonplace. The entire tournament was a nail-biting affair, with last-over finishes and close encounters keeping fans on the edge of their seats.

IPL 2025 Schedule

The curtain has fallen on the IPL 2024 season, and excitement is already building for the next edition. However, with a mega-auction looming large, discussions are currently focused on two key aspects:

March & April Month Schedule

May Month Schedule

Retention Policy and Player Retention

The retention policy for the mega-auction has been announced by the Indian Premier League. Now, with a purse of 120 Crore and a few new rules, franchises are strategizing which players to keep and build their teams around.

Scheduling Conflicts with Other T20 Leagues

The proliferation of T20 leagues worldwide has created a logistical nightmare – scheduling these tournaments to avoid clashes for players participating in multiple leagues.

While the IPL traditionally occurs during the Indian summer (late March to May), a potential conflict arises with the Pakistan Super League (PSL). The PSL, held in February-March 2024, is scheduled for April-May 2025. With the IPL dates still unconfirmed, this overlap in dates could lead to player participation uncertainties for those involved in both leagues.

IPL 2025 Auction, Player Retention Rules and Salary Structure

The excitement for IPL 2025 doesn’t stop there. It is preparing for its next mega auction in 2025, with significant changes to player retention rules. These new rules will impact how franchises build their teams and manage their budgets.

It’s especially exciting to see how Chennai Super Kings will handle their auction strategy and whether they retain key players like MS Dhoni or bring in fresh faces for a stronger squad. Similarly, other big teams like Mumbai Indians and Kolkata Knight Riders will aim for strategic picks.
