The Delhi Capitals are expected to retain several key players ahead of the IPL 2025 mega auction, including captain Rishabh Pant and rising star Jake Fraser-McGurk. With the new retention rules allowing for up to six players per franchise, the Capitals have a strategic opportunity to build a strong core for the upcoming season.
The Indian Premier League (IPL) has announced its highly anticipated retention rules, allowing teams to retain up to six players through direct retention or the Right to Match (RTM) option. The rules include a ‘pay more to retain more’ formula, where the cost of retaining players increases with each player retained. The deadline for teams to submit their final lists of retained players is October 31, 2024.
