IPL franchises to have heavier salary purses in 2018

Vivo Indian Premier League (IPL) franchises can now spend up to Rs 80 crore on player acquisition. In a meeting of the IPL Governing Council, the salary cap for players available to teams was increased from Rs 66 crore in 2017 to Rs 80 crore. The purse will increase to Rs 82 crore in 2018 and to Rs 85 crore for the 2020 edition. All teams will have to spend at least 75 per cent of the salary cap for each season.The meeting also resolved the issue of player retention. While some teams were in favour of the right to match (RTM) method, others preferred the retention method. Each team can now retain up to five players using a combination of the methods. Teams can retain a maximum of three players using either method. So if a team does not retain any players before the auction, it can still use the RTM method for three players. The player pool available for Chennai Super Kings and Rajasthan Royals for retention/RTM will be the players' who played for them respectively in the 2015 edition .
