Darpan Jain

More than 170 players registered for the auction.

The auction for the Kerala Cricket League (KCL) 2025 has seen several players getting sold at reasonable sums. More than 170 players registered for the auction, and they were divided into three categories – A, B, and C.

Teams were allowed to retain a maximum of four players, including a maximum of three capped players—those who have featured in competitions such as the Ranji Trophy, Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, Vijay Hazare Trophy, the IPL, or for India under-19. They also had an RTM card to use if they decided not to retain all four players.
