The stage is set for the defending champions to retain their core players for the Indian Premier League (IPL 2025). KKR has picked Sunil Narine as their number one pick for a price of 18 crores.

New Strategy for KKR in IPL 2025 Mega Auction

As disclosed by InsideSport previously, KKR will now opt for a different strategy in the IPL 2025 Mega Auction. The team won’t be going to send huge chunks of money on overseas stars. Instead, the defending champions will be targeting Indian players with specialized roles for the upcoming season.

With 6 players retained, Kolkata Knight Riders don’t have any RTM options left. But then the team can easily outbid others and rebuy a former player if they want to. KKR has gone on to spend 57 crores, meaning they have a purse left of 63 crores in the mega auction.
