For IPL 2025, the franchises have to submit the list of their retained players by the evening of October 31. Let us tell you that according to the new retention rules, any franchise can retain a maximum of 6 players.
Earlier, many reports have come out in which it is being told that Kolkata Knight Riders can release captain Shreyas Iyer and Andre Russell. Whereas Delhi Capitals can release captain Rishabh Pant. All these players are expected to come in the auction.
Apart from this, the festival of Diwali is being celebrated across the country today. The cricket world also wished and congratulated the countrymen and fans on Diwali. In this list, everyone from former cricketers to currently active cricketers sent their best wishes.
Very curious to see if Buttler is released by RR with the hope of getting him back cheaper via RTM. I’d really like to see what the market values him at this auction. #AakashVani

Looks like DC isn’t retaining JFM…now, PBKS (biggest purse—Aus coach) will ensure that his price goes through the roof.
Player Retention has this very important dynamic. Teams approaching players…promising that they’ve kept X amount for them…so, don’t get retained. Auction…— Aakash Chopra (@cricketaakash) October 31, 2024
Wishing you warmth, light and endless blessings. Happy Diwali.
