IPL 2025: Legends like Prithvi Shaw and Warner remaining unsold become a topic of discussion.

The mega auction of IPL 2025 is now over, but this time the auction will be remembered for many unexpected events. While on one hand a lot of money was showered on some players, on the other hand many big names did not find any buyer. Overall, around 100 players remained unsold in the two-day mega auction, which also includes legends like Prithvi Shaw and David Warner.

Warner: end of an era

David Warner, who made Sunrisers Hyderabad the IPL champion under his captaincy and has been one of the most successful batsmen of IPL with 6565 runs, could not be a part of any team this time. Warner’s remaining unsold after his retirement from international cricket disappointed his fans.

Prithvi Shaw’s falling graph

Indian young talent Prithvi Shaw, who was once called the future of IPL, was not bought by any team this time too. Decline in form and lack of consistency are considered to be the major reasons for his remaining unsold.

Big names, but no buyers

Apart from these, many big names, for which franchises used to bid heavily in the auction, remained unsold this time. This change reflects the changing priorities in the IPL and the strategy of giving more opportunities to young players.

This auction of IPL 2025 will be remembered in history not only for the record bidding but also for the legendary players remaining unsold.
