IPL 2023 Retained & Released Player List for all teams

A list of every team Prior to the mini-auction, retained players, released players, and remaining funds

Due to the T20 World Cup taking place in Australia, the entire cricketing world has been affected by international T20 fever for the past month. The Three Lions won the T20 World Cup trophy for the second time in history, but the T20 craze is far from over. On Tuesday, November 15, the much-anticipated list of retained and released players ahead of the IPL mini-auction was released, and the fans are buzzing.

Some of the top players who were retained were Virat Kohli (Royal Challengers Bangalore), Hardik Pandya, Rashid Khan, MS Dhoni (Chennai Super Kings), Rishabh Pant, Shikhar Dhawan, Kl Rahul, Jos Buttler, Rohit Sharma, Mumbai Indians, Shreyas Iyer, Kolkata Knight Riders, and Glenn Phillips (Sunrisers Hyderabad), among others.

A few players had to be released by teams in order to save some money, and some of the notable names that did so included Nicholas Pooran (SRH) and Mayank Agarwal (PBKS), among others.

Some of the players were also traded by the IPL franchises prior to the announcement. Gujarat Titans dealt Lockie Ferguson to Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), Delhi Capitals traded Shardul Thakur to KKR, GT traded Rahmanullah Gurbaz to KKR, and Royal Challengers Bangalore moved Jason Behrendorff to the Mumbai Indians.
