The IPL has come a long way since its inaugural season in 2008, emerging as a cash cow for the BCCI. With a joint digital and television rights deal of a whopping 6 billion USD for the 2023-27 cycle, the IPL has become the second-richest league in the world, trailing only the NFL.
A total of 333 cricketers will go under the hammer, of which 214 are Indians and 119 are overseas cricketers, including two from the associate nations. For the first time, an IPL auction will be held on foreign soil, as Dubai is the official host for the bidding war of the 17th season on December 19.
