In IPL 2025, Vaibhav Suryavanshi was seen playing for Rajasthan Royals. But will he play for this franchise in the next season as well? There is a rule of IPL behind our saying this.

Is Vaibhav Suryavanshi going to be out of Rajasthan Royals? Is he not going to play the next season wearing the Rajasthan jersey? And, if so, why? In the mega auction of IPL 2025, Rajasthan Royals had added Vaibhav Suryavanshi to themselves by bidding Rs 1.10 crore. Then how can he not be seen playing with this team in the next season? To know the answer to all these questions, you have to understand the rule of IPL, through which not only Vaibhav Suryavanshi, but many players of other teams can also be out of their respective teams of IPL 2025.

IPL mini auction rules

Now the question is what is that rule? That rule is actually of the mini auction, which happens before every IPL season. It does not happen once in 3 years like the mega auction. During the IPL mini auction, there is a possibility that Vaibhav Suryavanshi may be out of Rajasthan Royals. But it is also important to consider how this can happen.

What happens in a mini auction?

There is no limit on retaining players in the mini auction like in the mega auction. In this, teams can retain many players. This is the reason why only a few players are sold in this auction and it also ends in a day.

Now if Rajasthan Royals retained Vaibhav Suryavanshi then it is fine. But if they do not do so then after seeing his game, every team will have a keen eye on buying him. And, if this happens in the mini auction then Rajasthan will not even have the RTM card to reverse the decision. However, there is no reason why Rajasthan Royals should not retain Vaibhav Suryavanshi.

During the mini auction, teams also have the option of a trade window. This window opens twice. Once a month after the IPL season ends and one week before the mini auction begins. The second time is after the money auction till the start of the new season. It is possible that many teams show interest in Vaibhav Suryavanshi during that time and he moves from one team to another through this window. Earlier also, many such big players have been seen moving from one team to another. However, Vaibhav Suryavanshi is now one of the key players of Rajasthan. In such a situation, there is little possibility of them thinking about trading him.
