The IPL 2025 mega auction is set to make headlines as it moves to a new venue, and cricket fans can now look forward to two exciting days of intense bidding in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia’s capital city, on November 25 and 26. According to reports from Cricbuzz, Riyadh, home to the royal House of Al Saud with a net worth of Rs 1,17,68,582 crore, is the frontrunner to host this highly anticipated event. Though the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has not confirmed the location yet, officials are expected to finalize the announcement by the end of this week. The venue has been narrowed down to either Riyadh or Jeddah, with Riyadh being the most likely.
While concerns regarding a scheduling conflict with Team India's Border Gavaskar Trophy Test match against Australia (November 22 to 26) persist, the difference in time zones ensures that the auction will begin in the afternoon Indian Standard Time, avoiding any direct clashes.
