New Delhi. In IPL retention, all 10 franchises were allowed to retain a maximum of 6 players. Kolkata Knight Riders and Rajasthan Royals, two franchise teams, retained six players each and the rest did not follow this plan. Many teams have released their experienced players, while others have surprisingly retained some players. Before the signing, some players were said to be released by the franchise but these rumors came to an end when the signing list was released with Rohit Sharma’s name at the top of the list.

Before IPL 2025, there was only one question on everyone’s mind whether Rohit Sharma would stay with Mumbai Indians. People said that Rohit Sharma will leave Mumbai after taking over the captaincy. But nothing like that happened. Rohit has decided to play under the captaincy of Hardik Pandya. He remained fourth on the franchise’s retention list. He was hired by Mumbai Indians for IPL 2025 for Rs 16.30 crore.

From Siraj to Shami… 5 bowlers excluded from the franchise, the most successful bowler in IPL history is also included.

First Bumrah pushed, then he celebrated his number one spot with five wickets, giving the team a big lead of 416 runs

Punjab Kings retained 2 players
Punjab Kings have retained only two players. And both names are blank. Opener Prabhsimran Singh was acquired by the Punjab Kings for Rs 4 crore. Punjab Kings have released young fast bowler Arshdeep Singh and all-rounder Sam Karen. Instead of these big names, this franchise has retained Prabhsimran Singh and Shashank Singh in the team for IPL 2025. This is because both players performed excellently in IPL 2024. Prabhasimran had scored 334 runs last season. He was the top run-scorer for Punjab Kings.

Punjab Kings will enter the IPL 2025 auction with big money
Punjab Kings retained only 2 players in the retention area. Punjab Kings, owned by Preity Zinta, will enter the IPL 2025 auction with the highest prize money. The maximum amount in his handbag is Rs 110.5 crore. If this franchise wants, it can create a new best team by including big players in the mega auction of IPL.
