Mahipal Lomror's Unbeaten Triple Century Draws Attention Ahead Of IPL 2025 Auction

Mahipal Lomror's recent performance in the Ranji Trophy has caught the attention of IPL teams. On November 14, he scored an unbeaten triple century for Rajasthan against Uttarakhand. This impressive feat comes just before the IPL Mega Auction 2025, putting franchises on alert.

The left-handed batter from Nagaur district, known for his finishing skills in the IPL, hit 25 fours and 13 sixes during his innings. Lomror became only the second player from Rajasthan to achieve a triple century in Ranji Trophy history, following Aakash Chopra's 301 not out against Maharashtra in 2010.

Lomror has previously played for Rajasthan Royals and Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) in the IPL. His recent form has made him a hot topic among franchises ahead of the auction in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, on November 24 and 25. The Rajasthan Royals acknowledged his achievement with a video featuring head coach Rahul Dravid interacting with Lomror.

Despite being released by RCB, Lomror is expected to be considered for Right to Match (RTM) cards during the auction. His ability to bat in the middle order and offer left-arm spin makes him a versatile option for teams.

Currently, Lomror is the second-highest run-scorer in this Ranji season with 529 runs. His consistent performances have put him on several franchises' wish lists as they prepare for the upcoming auction.

Lomror's stint with RCB saw him play more regularly due to the impact player rule. He was bought by RCB for Rs 95 Lakh in the 2022 IPL Mega Auction after making 11 appearances for Rajasthan Royals over four seasons.

Lomror's IPL Journey

During his time with RCB, Lomror scored 346 runs across three seasons, striking at around 183 in the 2024 season. He played a crucial role as a finisher, addressing a gap that RCB had faced in previous matches.

The all-rounder's recent form and versatility make him an attractive prospect for any team looking to strengthen their squad at the big auction. His ability to contribute both with bat and ball adds value to any franchise considering him.
