PBKS head coach Ricky Ponting on retaining Shashank Singh:
"Prabhsimran [Singh] is someone who we have invested in and have great hopes for. Shashank [Singh]'s skillsets are in high demand and after his breakthrough performances, it was difficult to ignore him. We will target bringing back some of our other players at the auction."
Here's what KKR CEO Venky Mysore said on retentions:
"The no-brainers would have been maybe 10 or 11 players, but trying to trim that down to six was very challenging because it’s about the players that you have built an equation with and who have done fantastic for KKR. Sunil has been with us for 12 years while Andre has been with us for 10 years. Varun has been associated with KKR for a long time, since 2019 and Rinku as well has been with for a significant amount of time, since 2018. Harshit has been with the team for three years while Ramandeep came in last year and really made a big impact. So I think it's a good combination," said Venky.
Here's what co-owner Parth Jindal said on DC's retentions:
"In Axar, Kuldeep, Tristan and Abishek, we have the ideal blend of experience and youth, and I am very pleased with our retentions. I would have liked to retain more players who have turned out for DC, but the rules mean we have to pick strategically. Going into the auction we will have two RTM cards and that leaves the door open for players who have worn the DC shirt in the past, to carry on with us. We know who we want and will make sure to get some if not all the players back. With this important milestone behind us, the team is working tirelessly on the mega auction. Our intent is to build a strong and balanced squad that can bring home a much-awaited IPL trophy to our city," Jindal said.
Here's what LSG owner Sanjeev Goenka said on retentions:
"The first retention was an automatic choice and happened within two minutes, that is Nicholas Pooran. We had a very simple mindset to go in with players who have a mindset to win, who put the team before their personal goals and aspirations. And we wanted to retain as much core as possible within our available purse. We had a strong bowling unit, that’s why we went with three bowlers [Bishnoi, Mayank and Mohsin] from the previous season and all Indians. Pooran was a no-brainer. Ayush [Badoni] has done well for us at No. 6 and No. 7," Goenka said.
Here's what RCB head coach Andy Flower said on retentions:
"We are thrilled to retain Yash Dayal, an extraordinary talent whose career is on an upward trajectory. His unique ability as a left-arm bowler, capable of swinging the ball in both directions, adds a valuable dimension to our bowling attack - one that is increasingly rare in the auction landscape.
Rajat Patidar is a key member of our squad. His exceptional talent and resilience have already made a significant impact on our team, and he truly embodies the spirit of RCB. We are excited to see him continue to develop and shine in the upcoming season," Flower said.

The retention day of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 has finally arrived. Before the start of the IPL 2025 auction, the various 10 franchises will have to submit their respective lists of the retentions before the auction. The deadline day to announce the retention was pre-decided to be October 31, 2024.
5 PM IST has been the time to submit the retention list, and there have been many talking points before the retention. One of the biggest headlines has been the future of star batter Rohit Sharma.
There have been several reports that Rohit will not be retained by Mumbai Indians. The news comes after the five-time champions announced Hardik Pandya as their skipper before the IPL 2024, replacing the five-time champion captain.
Furthermore, Lucknow Super Giants have reportedly let go of KL Rahul as well. The star wicketkeeper-batter has led the franchise since the sideβs inception in 2022. LSG have reached the knockout stages of the tournament in every year but 2024. The previous year of the tournament saw LSG finish in seventh place in the standings.
It is also expected that the Royal Challengers Bengaluru will rename Virat Kohli as their skipper, parting ways with Faf du Plessis, who led them since the 35-year-old decided to step down.
Before the arrival of the mega auction, where the 10 franchises look to build their best possible squad, the retention could be a just as important aspect.
