The Indian T20 League auction is all set to take place on Friday, 23rd December in Kochi. With the future of 405 players on the line, the mini-auction will be a highly entertaining affair for cricket fans.
While the auction is going on for more than a decade, some new rules have been added this time around as well. Let’s look at the top five rules of the Indian T20 League auction.
Impact player rule
Arguably the best rule introduced in the Indian T20 League; the impact player rule will give teams another dimension to their strategy. The rule allows both teams to make one substitution from a listed four by the 14th over of an innings. The maximum number of overseas players among these 15 (11+4) can only be 4.
