Tom Moody told Star Sports, ‘For Punjab Kings, I feel that no player should be retained. Especially capped players. I would say that they should use Right to Match card for Arshdeep Singh, Sam Curran and Kagiso Rabada. Jitesh Sharma is another player in the auction who should be included in the team using the Right to Match card. When it comes to uncapped players, there are some who performed very well last season. Shashank Singh came in the middle order and batted aggressively and Harpreet Brar’s performance was also explosive. Punjab Kings team would like to win the Indian Premier League 2025 season. The performance of Punjab Kings in the Indian Premier League 2024 was disappointing. Punjab Kings could not make it to the playoffs last season and were ranked 9th in the points table. Let us tell you that in the last season, they had won only 5 out of 14 matches whereas they had to face defeat in the remaining 9 matches. However, the team would like to perform well in the 2025 season. Not only this, Punjab Kings would definitely like to win the trophy of the upcoming season.

IPL 2025: MS Dhoni will be CSK’s first retention: Harbhajan Singh
Dhoni has made CSK champion five times under his captaincy. MS Dhoni and Harbhajan Singh (Image Credit- Twitter Harbhajan Singh on MS Dhoni: Harbhajan Singh, famously known as the former veteran spinner and turbanator of the Indian cricket team, has recently given a big statement about MS Dhoni. Harbhajan says that Dhoni is going to be the first name in the retention list of Chennai Super Kings (CSK). It is noteworthy that a mega auction can be seen for the upcoming season of IPL at the end of November. But before this auction, all the 10 teams have to submit the list of their retained players to the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) before October 31, 2024. But meanwhile, Harbhajan’s statement has grabbed headlines. Harbhajan Singh gave a big statement Let us tell you that in a recent discussion with Star Sports, Harbhajan said- I am not sure whether Dhoni will play or not, but if he is available, he will definitely be the team’s first choice to retain, even if He should be considered an uncapped player this season. Harbhajan further said- After Dhoni, CSK’s next choice will be Ravindra Jadeja and Rachin Ravindra. As far as captain Ruturaj Gaikwad is concerned, he is also sure to be retained, I believe that these four players will be retained. Apart from this, we can also keep Mathisha Pathirana in the team, who is an excellent bowler. If an uncapped player is retained, it could be a surprise choice, but it is possible that CSK will retain only five players. So in my view, the possible retentions are MS Dhoni, Ravindra Jadeja, Rachin Ravindra, Ruturaj Gaikwad and Pathirana. Well, only after the retention list comes, it will be known which players have been retained by CSK? But it is certain that if Dhoni is available for the upcoming season, then CSK is going to be seen retaining him at any cost.

“I will keep Akshar Patel at number 2”- Aakash Chopra expressed his opinion regarding the retention of Delhi Capitals.
Rishabh Pant is the captain of Delhi Capitals in IPL. Aakash Chopra and Rishabh Pant (Image Credit- Twitter Former Team India batsman Aakash Chopra believes that Axar Patel should be the second retention of Delhi Capitals (DC) ahead of the IPL 2025 auction. He pointed out that the spin-bowling all-rounder has performed excellently for the franchise and it could prove costly for them if they try to re-acquire him through the ‘Right to Match’ card. Delhi Capitals failed to qualify for the IPL 2024 playoffs and the team finished sixth after the league stage ended. Axar was one of the star performers for Delhi Capitals in IPL 2024. He scored 235 runs in 12 innings at a strike rate of 131.28 and took 11 wickets in 44 overs at an economy rate of 7.65.

He said, “Rishabh Pant needs to be retained, although earlier there were rumors that he would not stay. However, now they are saying that it has been confirmed that he will be staying. So keep Rishabh Pant as your first retention, Rs 18 crore there.” The former opener further said, “I would say Axar Patel at number 2 because Bapu’s performance has been excellent for this team. He bowls four overs, bats very well and is a good fielder. If you keep him in the auction, you will have to pay a lot for RTM, so I think you should retain him.” Chopra admitted that the franchises may retain five capped players ahead of the auction. However, he added that apart from Rishabh Pant, Delhi Capitals do not have any players who should be retained for ₹18 crore, and hence they should limit themselves to only three capped retentions.
“They must be praying that Nitish Kumar Reddy remains uncapped”- Aakash Chopra said on SRH’s retention.

Hardik Pandya and Shivam Dubey are already in the team, so it may be difficult for young Reddy to make a place in the team.

Akash Chopra gave a big statement regarding Nitish Reddy Aakash Chopra, in a video shared on his YouTube channel, said, “They must be praying that Nitish Kumar Reddy remains uncapped. They might be saying – ‘Please don’t play him in the T20 series.’ Like Harshit Rana, his name is also in that team and if he gets a chance to play, he will also dominate.” Chopra said that when it comes to capped retention, captain Pat Cummins, Abhishek Sharma, Heinrich Klaasen and Travis Head will be SRH’s preferred choices. Chopra said, “First of all they have to retain the captain and Abhishek Sharma. You have to retain Heinrich Klaasen and if you can get Travis Head that’s great. These four names come to my mind first. Pat Cummins, since he is the captain, and he has managed the team very well, you would want to retain him.” Let us tell you that Abhishek Sharma had performed brilliantly with the bat in IPL 2024. He finished the tournament with an explosive strike rate of 204.22. Chopra said that SRH should retain this player as he can be one of the most expensive players if he goes to the auction.
