The Delhi Premier League: The Delhi Premier League (DPL) T20 Season 3 Player Auction is scheduled for July 1 in Delhi. Eight men's franchises and four women's franchises will build their squads for the upcoming season. More than 600 players are vying in the two competitions, including over 400 men and more than 200 women. Among them, 65 men's players and 28 women's players have already been retained by their franchises before the auction. DDCA President Rohan Jaitley said, The player auction is one of the most exciting days in the Delhi cricket calendar. It is the moment when teams begin taking shape, and franchises make the strategic calls that will define their season. The DPL has grown into a competition that genuinely matters for Delhi cricket, both as a platform for established players and as a stage for emerging talent to prove themselves. I am looking forward to seeing how the franchises put their combinations together and what the auction throws up on the day. Before the season, each of the eight men's franchises received a total purse of Rs 1.5 crore, with retention amounts already deducted. The remaining balance is what each franchise will contribute at the auction on July 1. Similarly, each of the four women's franchises was allocated a purse of Rs 75 lakhs, also adjusted after retention deductions. Players in both competitions are categorised into four groups according to their experience and cricket level. In the men's competition, the Marquee category includes India internationals, India A players, and those who have been part of an IPL squad in any of the last three seasons. Category A consists of players who represented Delhi's senior men's team in the Ranji Trophy, Vijay Hazare Trophy, or Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy within the past three domestic seasons. Category B encompasses Delhi Under-23, Under-19, and Under-16 players from the same timeframe. Category C comprises DDCA-registered players from Delhi's league cricket circuit. In the women's competition, the Marquee category features India international women cricketers from Delhi/DDCA, along with players who participated in Women's Premier League squads over the past three seasons. Category A includes players who represented Delhi's senior women's team in the Senior Women's One Day Trophy or T20 Trophy during any of the last three domestic seasons. Category B comprises Delhi Under-23, Under-19, and Under-15 players. Category C consists of DDCA Women's T20 League performers and registered players who have not been part of the senior team's playing XI. Men's Auction Pool: Across the four categories, 65 men's players have been retained by their franchises: eight from the Marquee category, 16 from Category A, 22 from Category B, and 19 from Category C. The base prices are Rs 10 lakhs for Marquee players, Rs 5 lakhs for Category A, Rs 3 lakhs for Category B, and Rs 1 lakh for Category C. At the men's auction, the Marquee players feature Rishabh Pant prominently, along with Ishant Sharma, Navdeep Saini, Simarjeet Singh, Mayank Yadav, Anuj Rawat, Digvesh Rathi, Himmat Singh, Kuldeep Yadav, Sarthak Ranjan, Suyash Sharma, Vansh Bedi, and Tejasvi. Women's Auction Pool: Across the four categories, 28 women's players have been retained by their franchises, with three retained from the Marquee category, eight from Category A, 12 from Category B and 5 from Category C. The base price for Marquee players is Rs 5 lakhs, Category A is Rs 3 lakhs, Category B is Rs 1.5 lakhs and Category C is Rs 75,000. The Marquee players available at the women's auction are Priya Punia, Priya Mishra, Parunika Sisodia, Pratika Rawal and Simran Dil Bahadur. Right To Match: Every franchise in both competitions has one RTM card, usable once during the auction. When a player from a franchise's previous season squad is up for bidding, the original franchise can allow others to bid and, upon reaching a final bid, use the RTM card to match the bid and re-acquire the player. Squad Composition Men's franchises are required to field a squad of 20 to 25 players, including exactly two Marquee players, exactly four Category A players, six to 10 Category B players, and eight to nine Category C players. Women's franchises must assemble a squad of 18 to 22 players, with exactly two Marquee players, exactly four Category A players, seven to eight Category B players, and five to eight Category C players.

New Delhi: Former England spinner Graeme Swann believes Vaibhav Sooryavanshi presents one of the toughest assignments for England's bowling attack ahead of India's T20I series, saying the teenage batter has so far found answers against every challenge put before him. Speaking ahead of the series in England, Swann suggested that while most bowlers are still searching for a way to contain the youngster, Jofra Archer could hold a slight advantage because of his familiarity with Sooryavanshi from the IPL. He admitted that preparing for a batter with limited international exposure but extensive franchise experience is far from straightforward. It's hard to prepare for a player like Vaibhav Sooryavanshi. He is still new to international cricket, but he has already played two IPL seasons. That means there is video footage available. Some of the England bowlers may have bowled to him in the IPL, Swann told JioStar. Even with that information at their disposal, Swann feels England have little evidence to suggest there is a clear blueprint for dismissing the young left-hander. But the truth is, no one has really had much success against him so far. He has looked almost unplayable, he added. Among England's pace options, however, Swann identified Archer as the bowler best placed to test Sooryavanshi, citing the fast bowler's first-hand knowledge of the teenager's game. The one bowler who might have a slight advantage is Jofra Archer. He has seen Sooryavanshi from the dugout, bowled to him in the nets, and watched him closely. He has probably seen more of him than anyone else, Swann opined. Swann believes that familiarity could help Archer uncover a method to challenge the youngster, particularly given his ability to combine insight with genuine pace. Maybe he has spotted a weakness. Maybe he has a plan. And he has the express pace to back it up. The one bowler who might have a slight advantage is Jofra Archer. He has seen Sooryavanshi from the dugout, bowled to him in the nets, and watched him closely. He has probably seen more of him than anyone else, Swann opined.
