IPL 2023 Auction: BCCI is planning to conduct this year’s IPL Auction in mid-December. After the mega auction in IPL 2022, this year there will be a mini auction to be placed, more likely on December 16.
The tentative IPL 2023 schedule has been discussed among the IPL franchises who have apparently got the indication from the BCCI during informal conversations recently.
It will be a mini-auction but the venue for the Auction has been not finalized yet, but it is more likely to be held at the same venue as last year.
The purse value of each team will be INR 95 crores, it was INR 90 crores in the previous season. If a player leaves or the franchise trade a player, the amount in the team’s purse will be increased accordingly.
