Punjab Kings have the largest purse in their kitty after the IPL 2025 retention deadline day saw them retain uncapped duo of Prabhsimran Singh (Rs 4 crore) and Shashank Singh (Rs 5.5 crore). With PBKS spending Rs 9.5 crore on their two retentions, they now go into the auction with a purse of 110.5 crore, the most amongst all ten franchises. On the other hand, Rajasthan Royals retained Sanju Samson (Rs 18 crore), Yashasvi Jaiswal (Rs 18 crore), Riyan Parag (Rs 14 crore), Dhruv Jurel (Rs 14 crore), Shimron Hetmyer (Rs 11 crore) and Sandeep Sharma (Rs 4 crore - uncapped) to be left with minimum purse remaining for the mega auction. RR have only 41 crore for the bidding war set to take place in November this year.
It is to note that PBKS are the only side with over a 100 crore remaining purse. Royal Challengers Bengaluru, who are at the second spot in the list, have Rs 83 crore remaining for the auction.
In one of the big and unexpected moves, Delhi Capitals released their skipper Rishabh Pant while retaining Axar Patel (Rs 16.5 crore), Kuldeep Yadav (Rs 13.25 crore), Tristan Stubbs (Rs 10 crore) and Abishek Porel (Rs 4 crore). DC have Rs 73 crore in their kitty ahead of the mega auction.
