Why are IPL auctions necessary before IPL?
The IPL auctions are required before an IPL season because they assist clubs in assembling a roster that is evenly matched. As was already noted, the BCCI chooses each franchise’s auction purse prior to the auction starting. Consequently, none of the team owners have a benefit.
The IPL auctions also guarantee that the player selection procedure is open and honest. Any team can sign a player. The fact that the auctions are broadcast globally means that the fans also learn the specifics. The participants also learn what goes on in the auction room.

Does the IPL auction take place annually?
Yes, the IPL auction occurs every year. The IPL super auction, however, does not take place each year. Every three to four years, it occurs. All other auctions were mini auctions except for the mega auctions in 2011, 2014, and 2018.
