Teams can make changes to their roster by removing the injured players and thereby buying new players who remained unsold in the IPL 2025 Mega Auction. In such a scenario, the teams will be able to acquire the unsold players for their base price amount.
But signing replacements would be very limited. Since the players and the teams will be hopeful that their initial roster remains 100% fit before the tournament starts. But if an unfortunate incident happens and a team gets an injured player. Then they can easily sign a replacement in the form of an unsold player.
