The cricket fans around the world are focussed on the ODI Cricket World Cup 2023 currently. All the top teams are engaged in a close battle to qualify for the semi-finals. In the midst of this a report by news agency PTI has given some interesting details about the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 auction. It is one day when all IPL fans look forward to which player their favourite franchises pick up for the next edition. According to the PTI report, Dubai is set to host the Indian Premier League auction for the 2024 season on December 19.
"It is a 10-team IPL auction now and it becomes very, very difficult to get hundreds of rooms in a same five-star facility which can house the multiple members of the franchises, the various BCCI officials, operations team, broadcast crew. That's the reason Dubai is the favourite venue," an official said.
During the upcoming auction, each team will have a purse of Rs 100 crore for the 2024 season, a increase of Rs 5 crore from last year. The Women's Premier League auction will happen on December 9.
