Ishan Kishan: Mumbai Indians

With Rohit, Bumrah, Suryakumar and Hardik set to be guaranteed, Kishan may not settle for Rs 11 cr.

Glenn Maxwell: Royal Challengers Bengaluru

After a disappointing 2024 season, RCB may not consider Maxwell as a worthy big-money retention.

R Ashwin: Rajasthan Royals

Ashwin may be flourishing in Test cricket, but Rajasthan have several star performers in their team.

Shreyas Iyer: Kolkata Knight Riders

Spoilt for choices, KKR may choose to not retain their captain in favour of more in-form players, like Phil Salt.
