ipl mega auction 2025 : The IPL 2025 mega auction to be held next month is going to be a game changer. Especially for those teams who want to strengthen their opening slot. Sunrisers Hyderabad is the only franchise that has retained both its openers Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma, the remaining nine teams are looking for powerful top order batsmen who can take advantage of the powerplay overs. Rohit Sharma is counted among the most explosive batsmen in the world.

He has given a taste of his talent to big bowlers. He has hit sixes and fours. His name is also famous in IPL, but now the times are changing. With increasing age, Rohit Sharma's game has slowed down. Batsmen more dangerous than Hitman have come in IPL. In this episode, let's talk about four such young openers, who are going to be a hit in the auction. Teams are ready to pay the asking price to add them to their team. Yes! The first name in this list is Jake Fraser McGurk. Australia's 22-year-old rising star.

Right-handed explosive opener. Made his IPL debut in 2024 and did wonders in his very first season. Scored two half-centuries in just 15 balls for Delhi Capitals. And became the joint third-fastest batsman to hit a fifty in IPL history.

His fearless power hitting can attract any franchise, in such a situation any team will happily spend Rs 10 crore on him. 28-year-old England opener Phil Salt. If Kolkata Knight Riders became the champion last season, Salt played an important role in it. Along with scoring 435 runs in 12 matches of IPL 2024, he gave the team a blazing start in almost every match along with Sunil Narine.

Phil Salt has the ability to hit from the very first ball. Many franchises are looking for a reliable foreign opener for the next season. Salt does wicketkeeping along with batting, so it is certain that money will rain on him. I don't know what was the compulsion that Rajasthan Royals did not retain their most explosive batsman. Yes!

England's white ball captain and experienced wicketkeeper Jos Buttler. Butler's greatness can be gauged from the fact that he has scored not one or two but seven centuries in the IPL. He is just one century behind Kohli, who is at the top. Butler was an important player of Rajasthan Royals for the last seven seasons.

According to the amount of money left in Rajasthan's purse, it does not seem that they will be able to add him to their team again. The only Indian name in this list is Ishan Kishan. Ishan Kishan has seen many ups and downs in the last one year. Right now he is going through the most delicate phase of his career.

Mumbai Indians had placed a huge bid of 15.25 crores on him in the last mega auction, but did not retain him this time. There could be a competition among many franchises to add Ishan, who has the ability to change the match on his own.
