IPL 2025: RCB loses again, this time with auction rating; DC impresses despite Rishabh Pant's absence

After a quiet Day 1, Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) suddenly woke up on Day 2 of the IPL 2025 Auction, trying to build a team from the players left for the upcoming season. Meanwhile, Delhi Capitals (DC) have managed to impress cricket pundits.
Karen Noronha Updated on Nov 26, 2024, 14:18 IST

When one talks about the Indian Premier League (IPL), certain teams and faces like Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and 'Thala' MS Dhoni come to mind. This is especially true when the IPL makes rule changes to allow CSK to retain MS Dhoni at a low price. Other teams like Mumbai Indians (MI) and Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) are also mentioned as frequent IPL title contenders.

So, when the IPL 2025 Auction took place, fans hoped and prayed that a team like Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB)!with their big name, fame, and 'KING' Virat Kohli on their side!would go all guns blazing to get the best players to form a new team. Many even hoped for a homecoming of players like KL Rahul and Yuzvendra Chahal, while RTM (Right to Match) would be used to retain players like Mohammed Siraj and Will Jacks. However, RCB, being RCB, did the complete opposite, shocking everyone!including their fans and critics.

After a quiet Day 1 at the mega-auction, RCB suddenly woke up on Day 2, realizing they needed to buy players and build a team from the available cricketers for the upcoming season. JIOSTAR!Jio Cinema and Hotstar! experts released their auction rankings after the two days of intense drama. While RCB ranked low and underperformed in the auction, Delhi Capitals (DC) surprisingly earned the most points, despite Rishabh Pant's absence. Let's have a look at all teams, their squads and the rating they got out of 10.
