How does arata izumi having india cap help him in his woeful form? i guess the teams woudl care about his contribution in the coming season than the long forgotten cap.
The auction will happen first. During the auction there will be 10 players available. These players were not in ISL last season and they have been to an India camp at least once with all them having a cap except Anas Edathodika. Each player has a base price for how much they will earn.
Each team will be able to bid for at least 2 of the 10 players. In the end, the players not bought will go into the draft. The draft shall feature over 100 Indians but only around half shall be drafted as their are limited spots on the teams. Each team will be put into an order (So, for example, NorthEast United will be 1, Pune City 2, etc.) and that team will be able to select any name from the available list as long as that player has not been selected yet. Each team will do this for an still unknown amount of rounds with the order the teams go changed every round.
Expect FC Goa to skip their turn in the draft a lot as they already have a lot of Indian signings.
