Shreyas Iyer

Shreyas Iyer became the first captain in the history of the Indian Premier League to be a defending captain and not be retained. According to reports, Shreyas Iyer claimed a whooping price of 30 crores which Kolkata Knight Riders refused. As a result, the ace batter finds himself in the IPL 2025 Mega Auction.

While teams will be willing to spill their cash, as they get a captain and ace top-order batter, the dynamics aren’t that simple. Since being snubbed off his BCCI Central Contract, Shreyas Iyer featured only for an ODI series under new head coach Gautam Gambhir. He is no longer a part of the T20I squad and his lack of game time in the 2024 calendar year can go against him.

KL Rahul

It was a messy affair between KL Rahul and Lucknow Super Giants. Amidst tensions and disagreements between the player and management, KL Rahul was not retained by the Lucknow outfits. But the biggest drawback for the veteran batter is his strike rate.

KL Rahul is not a hard hitter and often takes time to build his innings. A trait that doesn’t essentially bode well in modern T20I cricket. Teams need a hard-hitting proactive batter who can lead the charge for his side, something which is very different from Rahul’s skillset. This drawback can see KL Rahul being under a bit of pressure of not being able to match his previous contract of 17 crores.

 Mohammed Siraj

Mohammed Siraj‘s form has dipped consistently over the last year. Though he has been a part of the India Cricket Team across all three formats, his fluctuating performances both for India and RCB have been a major concern.

With his form dipping consistently, Mohammed Siraj was not retained by Royal Challengers Bengaluru on IPL 2025 Retention Day. And now there is a major doubt if teams will be willing to spare huge bucks on the speedster.
