Tanush Kotian IPL 2025

As the cricketing world looks ahead to the 2025 Indian Premier League (IPL), the status of Mumbai all-rounder Tanush Kotian has become a topic of interest. 

Despite being a promising talent in domestic cricket, Kotian’s journey in the IPL has faced a setback as he went unsold in the recent IPL 2025 mega auction.

Unsold in IPL 2025 Auction

Tanush Kotian was released by the Rajasthan Royals ahead of the mega auction after having played only one match in the 2024 season. 

In that solitary appearance, he scored 24 runs against the Punjab Kings but did not get an opportunity to bowl. His limited exposure in the league raised questions about his marketability, leading to his unsold status during the IPL 2025 auction held on December 19, 2024. 

Despite entering the auction, no franchises bid for him, leaving him without a team for the upcoming season.

Recent Developments and Future Prospects

While Kotian’s IPL journey has hit a snag, he has recently made headlines for his selection into the Indian national team as a replacement for Ravichandran Ashwin in the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy against Australia. 

This call-up comes on the back of impressive performances in domestic cricket, where he was named Player of the Tournament in the 2023-24 Ranji Trophy season, amassing 502 runs and taking 29 wickets.

 His inclusion in the national squad is seen as an opportunity to showcase his skills on a larger stage, which could potentially enhance his prospects in future IPL seasons.

Eligibility for Future IPL Seasons

Despite not being part of any team for IPL 2025, Tanush Kotian remains eligible to play in future editions of the tournament.

His status as an Indian player and previous participation in the league ensures that he can be considered by franchises in upcoming auctions or as a replacement player if needed.

If any sold player does not participate in IPL 2025 for any reason, then franchises might give a spot to Tanush as a replacement.
