IPL’s popularity continues to grow leaps and bounds as a cricketer from Italy has registered for the upcoming IPL 2025 auction. No, it’s not former Australian player Joe Burns who moved to Italy recently. The sole Italian who will be a part of the auction is Thomas Jack Draca, a 24-year-old who has been placed on the 325th spot on the auction registration list.
