IPL 2024: The auction for the Indian Premier League 2024 (IPL 2024) season is scheduled to take place on December 19 in Dubai. Before this, all 10 franchises will have to release their retention list, the deadline for which is Sunday, November 26. November 26 is also the last day of the trade window. Franchises have the facility to trade players before releasing the retention list. Trade can happen in two ways. Franchises can either exchange cricketers among themselves or buy players by paying money.
Apart from this, if more than one franchise is interested in signing a player, then the franchise to which the cricketer belongs has the right to choose which team he will be traded to. The player’s consent is mandatory before a cricketer can be traded or transferred. The IPL Governing Council has the authority to give final approval to trade deals.
