#4 Reshuffled teams
IPL Auction 2018 which was held earlier this year was the first of its kind in the history of the league. Since the inception of the tournament in 2008, this has been the first time that all the teams have been built from scratch. Most of the players who were linked to a particular franchise will be seen playing for new teams this year.
Due to the retention policy, many of the teams never released their star players over the years. For instance, Mumbai Indians never released their key players like Harbhajan Singh and Lasith Malinga, Royal Challengers Bangalore never released Chris Gayle and there are many such examples.
In the upcoming season, it will be interesting to see the players who were stuck with a particular team for years, turning up for their new teams.
