The list of retained players for IPL 2025 has been released. RCB, one of the most famous cricket teams in the world, has surprisingly retained only 3 players. The big news is that RCB did not retain its captain Faf du Plessis. Besides, Mohammad Siraj has also been out of the team. Instead of Siraj, Bengaluru has retained a very less experienced young Indian bowler in the team. Bengaluru has also shown the way to players like Glenn Maxwell and Cameron Green. However, the team has opened the safe for veteran player Virat Kohli. The team has showered lavish amounts of money on him.
RCB has shown confidence in only three players which include Virat Kohli, Rajat Patidar and Yash Dayal. RCB has retained only Indian talent. Apart from them, Punjab Kings have done this work. RCB gave the most money to Virat Kohli. Virat Kohli has been retained for 21 crores. Rajat Patidar has been retained for Rs 11 crore. Yash Dayal has been retained as an uncapped player for Rs 5 crore.
: Bengaluru, welcome your superheroes! They're here to Play Bold donning the Red, Blue & Gold with pride once again.
