In the IPL 2021 Mini Auctions, the total purse value was capped at INR 85 Crores. Furthermore, each franchise can spend a maximum of INR 46 Crores for retaining four players of their choice.



"The BCCI had sent a letter to all the franchises, updating them about the new rules where four retentions will cost a team Rs 42 crore while three retentions will lead to a reduction of Rs 33 crore," a senior IPL franchise official told PTI.



If a franchise opts to retain a maximum of two players, they will have to spend INR 24 Crores while for one retention, the franchise will shell out INR 14 Crores.



The retention process will begin on November 1 and the final submission date is November 30. The two new franchise will begin their process of picking three players from the auction pool soon after the existing eight franchise complete their retention process.
