Sunil Gavaskar calls for transparency in IPL player trades

Cricket legend Sunil Gavaskar has called for increased transparency regarding player trades and transfers within the Indian Premier League (IPL). He noted that while public transfers are known, the specific financial details of trades are currently restricted to the involved franchises, the players, and the BCCI.

Gavaskar argued that this lack of public information makes it difficult for other franchises to verify if teams are adhering to or breaching their squad salary caps. He emphasized that full transparency is essential to maintain the credibility and stature of the league and to prevent accusations from critics or those jealous of the competition's success.
