KKR Retained & Released Players 2025: See the list of retained and released players of Kolkata Knight Riders here
Defending champion Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) had earlier expressed to the BCCI officials their desire to retain as many core players as possible. During a meeting on 31 July, the Sunrisers Hyderabad management also said the same thing, but IPL officials allowed each team to retain a maximum of six players, one of whom must be an uncapped Indian cricketer. KKR had to face a lot of problems in their retention for the final as their aim was to retain the key players. Since the BCCI made the IPL retention rules official, the management has interacted with the players several times, trying to understand their thought processes and at what price they are interested in being retained. BCCI said in the plan that the first retention will earn Rs 18 crore, after which the second and third retention will earn Rs 14 crore and Rs 11 crore respectively. But the rule that came after this had a different twist. The twist was that the fourth retention would get Rs 18 crore and the fifth retention would get Rs 11 crore. The uncapped player can be registered for Rs 4 crore. With Harshit Rana not making his debut, it was clear that the team management would retain him as an uncapped player, but there were a lot of doubts about the other players, especially captain Shreyas Iyer. But at the last moment he surprised everyone by retaining Andre Russell.

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has not yet given information about its date. However, the franchises have to submit the list of retained players on Thursday (31 October). This time the franchises have a purse of Rs 120 crore. The amount with which she will enter the mega auction depends on the retention. A franchise is allowed to retain a maximum of six players using Right-to-Match (RTM) cards during the retention phase or in the mega auction. The franchise has the flexibility to retain six players from the 2024 squad. Retention slab of players as per new IPL rules Capped Player 1: Rs 18 crore Caped Player 2: Rs 14 crore Caped Player 3: Rs 11 crore Caped Player 4: Rs 18 crore Caped Player 5: Rs 14 crore Uncapped player: Rs 4 crore Can a franchise retain a player for more or less money than the slab? If a team decides to pay Rs 18 crore to retain another capped player, an amount of Rs 18 crore will be deducted from its auction purse. Even if the team decides to pay Rs 10 crore to another capped player, which is less than his retention value, the amount deducted from his purse will still be Rs 14 crore as per his assigned bracket. How many foreign players can be retained? There has been another rule change before the IPL 2025 mega auction. If any franchise wants, it can retain 6 out of 6 foreign players.

“People give credit to Rishabh Pant but the real hero of 2021 BGT win was Pujara” – Tim Paine’s surprising statement
Cheteshwar Pujara & Tim Paine (Photo Source: Former Australian captain Tim Paine recently opened up about how important Cheteshwar Pujara’s role was in India’s memorable 2020-21 Border-Gavaskar Trophy win. Paine said that Pujara played the most important role in that series win but people still give his credit to Rishabh Pant. In the 2020-21 Border-Gavaskar Trophy, after suffering a humiliating defeat in Adelaide, India, without their regular captain Virat Kohli and several key senior players, made a spectacular comeback and won the series 2-1. On the 2020-21 Australia tour, Team India won the last Test match of the series, which was played at the Gabba ground, by three wickets, in which Rishabh Pant played the match-winning innings. That innings of Rishabh Pant was recorded in the pages of history. Pant is considered the hero of the 2020-21 Australia vs India Border-Gavaskar Trophy, but former Australian Test captain Tim Paine has a different opinion about it. He believes that because of Cheteshwar Pujara, Team India had captured the 2020-21 Border Gavaskar Trophy. The player who won the series for India in the last series was Cheteshwar Pujara – Tim Paine Tim Paine said on the Grade Cricketers podcast, ‘From what I remember, a lot of people talk about Rishabh Pant, in the last series in Australia, but the man who won the series for India was Cheteshwar Pujara. He had demoralized us and our fast bowlers. He was continuously getting the ball hit on his body, but was getting up again and again. It still has its place in Test cricket. Let us tell you that in the 2020-21 Border-Gavaskar Trophy, Pujara may not have scored a century, but he spent a long time at the crease, and tired the Australian bowlers. Pujara had scored 271 runs in the four-match Test series, of which 77 was his best score. Whereas Rishabh Pant had scored 274 runs in the series.
“This is a big series which I want to win”- Cummins wants to defeat Team India at any cost in BGT.
While being the captain of Australia, Pat Cummins has so far won the Ashes Series, World Test Championship and ODI World Cup. But he has not yet been able to win the Border-Gavaskar Test series against India and the 31-year-old fast bowler wants to include this trophy in his cabinet by defeating India in the upcoming Border Gavaskar Trophy (BGT). The Border-Gavaskar Trophy between India and Australia is starting from November 22 and the first match of the series will be played in Perth. Winning the Test series against India is a big thing. Pat Cummins wants to achieve this. The upcoming five-match Test series is going to be very exciting. Pat Cummins is yet to have the experience of winning a Test series against India, be it at home or away. This is a big thing I want to accomplish – Pat Cummins Australia has not won the Border-Gavaskar Trophy for the last 10 years. In such a situation, this is a sequence which the Australian captain wants to break on home soil this year. “It’s a big thing I want to accomplish,” Cummins told AAP on Tuesday. Especially winning at home. “Most Australians, including myself, expect us to perform well whenever we play at home.” He further said, “We have lost the (last) two series against India (in Australia), so this is a big thing. We feel like our team is in really good shape, so we have no reason not to perform really well. I always hope that we perform well against whoever we play, but there is pressure to perform well against India. “That makes it a big year and a big season.” Pat Cummins believes that there will be pressure on the Australian team. “I think whenever a team is under pressure, it is not a bad thing if you are playing against them, but they have played here before and done well. Our job is to keep them calm, see what we do.”
