With IPL 2022 set be a complete makeover in terms of teams and the tournament format, the eight legacy teams are in the process of submitting their final lists of player retentions. As per the BCCI’s retention rules, each team is allowed to retain up to four players with a limit of two overseas players.
The two new teams, Lucknow and Ahmedabad, will then be allowed to acquire three players each from the players not retained. The remaining will end up in the auction pool for the IPL 2022 mega auction set to take place later in December or in early January next year.
