jofra archer ignored! likely reason why ipl franchises said 'no' to england pacer

The BCCI on Friday (November 15) released the pruned list of players who will be up for grabs in the IPL 2025 mega-auction. There are two sets of marquee players this time. The likes of Shreyas Iyer, Rishabh Pant, Jos Buttler and other stars will be part of the mega-auction, scheduled to take place on November 24 and 25 in Jeddah.

Despite being injury-prone, Jofra Archer was expected to make headlines in the IPL 2025 mega-auction. Archer has always bagged fat paycheques when he has entered the auctions and once again, he was expected to go for a big amount. But the IPL franchises ignored the England pacer.

Cricbuzz has reported that Archer will be missing IPL 2025 as the England Cricket Board wants him to be fit for the Ashes series. It is to be noted that Archer was part of the original list of players and had a base price of Rs 2 crore. His absence from the next year's IPL is likely the reason behind the franchises ignoring him.

Archer has only played in four IPL seasons so far despite entering his first auction in 2018. Rajasthan Royals (RR) spent heavily on Archer in the IPL 2018 mega-auction and bought him for Rs 7.2 crore.

Archer played IPL 2018 and 2019 while he was confirmed to miss IPL 2020. He only featured in IPL 2020 after the tournament was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Archer missed IPL 2021.

Going into IPL 2022 mega-auction, it was already confirmed that Archer would not be available in 2022 but the teams still spent a big amount on him. Mumbai Indians bought him for Rs 8 crore. Archer only played 5 matches in IPL 2023.

Since Archer registered for the IPL 2025 mega-auction and failed to make it to the pruned list, he will be allowed to enter the IPL 2026 mini-auction.
