The mock auction featured 10 teams, each wearing T-shirts that matched the real IPL franchises. Each team had a budget identical to the actual budget of its IPL counterpart. All auction rules, including RTM (Right to Match) availability and price changes, were the same as those used in a real IPL auction.
