The IPL 2022 auction is around the corner and all the 10 teams have announced their retained/picked players well in advance. While some of the cricketers have impressed the franchises with their consistent performances in the season gone by, there have been a few of them who are retained for the value that their presence brings to the team.

At the same time, a few of the retained players could have fetched some more prize money had they been released by their respective teams as their competitors would not have hesitated in bringing them on board by spending a huge amount. So, let&#8217;s find out the players who could have earned more in IPL 2022 had they gone under the hammer in the next week&#8217;s mega auction.

5 Players who could&#8217;ve earned more in IPL 2022 mega auction

<a href="https://www.crictracker.com/send-him-back-he-doesnt-have-that-level-of-maturity-yet-gautam-gambhir-on-venkatesh-iyers-odi-struggles/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Venkatesh Iyer</strong></a> made his presence felt during the second leg of the IPL 2021 season in the UAE. He stunned the opposition teams with his power-hitting abilities opening the innings for Kolkata Knight Riders. Iyer finished with 370 runs from 10 matches along with three scalps as KKR made the finals only to go down to CSK.

While the franchise did release most of their players, they showed faith in the southpaw and retained him for a sum of INR 8 crore which is almost a mammoth 400% hike from what he had earned in the previous edition which was INR 20 lakh.

Had the Madhya Pradesh cricketer been released, he would have certainly fetched a higher bid than what he is getting now considering that the teams were impressed with his all-round abilities on the cricket field.

<a href="https://www.crictracker.com/we-think-ruturaj-gaikwad-will-do-wonders-for-the-country-chetan-sharma/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Ruturaj Gaikwad</strong></a> was the silver lining in the dark cloud for the Chennai Super Kings in his debut season in 2020 where he had finished with 204 runs from the six games. He didn&#8217;t impress to start with but ended the 2020 edition with consecutive Player of the Match performances. And he continued his run in the 2021 season and went on to win the Orange Cap having amassed 635 runs from all the 16 matches.

The opener was retained by the defending champions for a sum of INR 6 crore which is a significant hike from the 2021 edition where he was offered INR 20 lakh. Ruturaj&#8217;s good show also earned him a place in the Indian team and is set to make regular appearances at the top of the order in the near future.

The Maharashtra cricketer could, by all means, have got more money had the four-time champions decided to part ways with him as a few teams are eyeing to have a permanent opening batter.

<a href="https://www.crictracker.com/arshdeep-singh-can-play-for-india-the-bcci-must-look-after-him-virender-sehwag/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Arshdeep Singh</strong></a> has impressed one and all with his left-arm pace as he became an overnight sensation in the IPL ever since he started playing for Punjab Kings in the 2019 edition. While Punjab have been unsuccessful in making the playoffs for seven seasons, the tall pacer has arguably been their most consistent performer for his ability to bowl yorkers at the death.

He finished the 2021 season with 18 scalps to his name from 12 games and was retained by the 2014 finalists for a whopping INR 4 crore which is 200% more than what he was offered last year. Just like Iyer and Gaikwad, even Arshdeep was bought for a sum of only INR 20 lakh in the auction.

The Guna cricketer could have definitely fetched some more money had he been released by the franchise and some other team could have picked him up for his ability to strike with the new ball and also at the back end of the innings.

Young opener <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/shubman-gill-or-prithvi-shaw-might-replace-mayank-agarwal-in-the-indian-test-side-going-forward-harbhajan-singh/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Prithvi Shaw</strong></a> has made a huge impact for the Delhi Capitals ever since he was first roped in by the franchise. With his great knocks, while opening the innings, Shaw was instrumental in Delhi making the playoffs (in 2019 and 2021 seasons) and the final in 2020.

The youngster had amassed 479 runs from 15 matches and that is the reason why the 2020 finalists decided to retain him. Delhi Capitals have offered Shaw a sum of INR 7.5 crore compared to INR 1.20 crore that he was paid last season and it certainly shows the talent Shaw possesses with the bat.

The 2018 U19 World Cup-winning captain could have easily bagged a few more crores had he been released by DC. A lot more teams would&#8217;ve bid for him which would&#8217;ve earned him a lot of money.

He made his first impression with 22 scalps from 16 outings and played an instrumental role in them making a maiden final appearance. The South African pacer was once again a part of DC for IPL 2021 and was yet again impressive finishing with 12 wickets from eight appearances.

Nortje has been retained by the 2020 runners-up for INR 6 crore which is way more than what he was paid in 2021. He actually had come in as replacement for England all-rounder Chris Woakes who pulled out of the tournament due to bio-bubble issues after going unsold in the auction.

But, the Proteas speedster would have certainly received a lot more had DC decided to part ways with him. The former champions KKR, Sunrisers Hyderabad or the Mumbai Indians could have brought him on board considering that they need fast bowlers.

IPL 2022: 5 retained/picked players who could've earned more money at the mega auction

Here are the five players who could have earned more had they not been retained ahead of the upcoming IPL 2022 mega auction
