zen Posted April 29, 2021 Posted April 29, 2021 (edited) With 10 teams planned for next yr including one at A'bad, below are a few likely candidates for the A'bad team (from the top of the mind recall). A team can retain 3 Ind capped players + 2 right to match (RTM) cards )or 2 players + 3 RTM The Ind core SDP (Hardik). Can come in to captain the team. MI could retain him but if he has an ordinary IPL, he could miss out, which could be a blessing in disguise esp. if he gets to take additional responsibility officially to captain the side. In this case MI would need to go for Rohit, Bumrah & SKY as Ind capped players, and use RTM for Pollard and Boult Kishan, who may get the opportunity to not only open but also keep. Currently, under the shadows of QdK at MI R Chahar, the leg spinner seeking to break into team Ind Siraj. Improving as a bowler. Assuming RCB uses up its 5 players on Kohli, Maxwell, ABDV, Padikkal & Chahal Natarajan. If SRH retains Warner, Bairstow, Rashid, Bhuvi & Pandey An off spinner like Sundar or Ashwin (DC could go with Pant, Shaw, Rabada, Nojke/Hetmyer, and Dhawan) A few value purchases Samad. Can get a consistent run at the new franchise ... Tewatia is a great option too but RR could go Buttler, Stokes, Archer, Samson & Tewatia Jaiswal. The new boy with fighting spirit so maybe a good investment Ruturaj SRK Kishan Roy/QdK/... Williamson/Root/... (useful if playing at A'bad) Mooen/Hetmyer/Pooran/... SDP (c) SRK Samad Starc/Norjke R Chahar Siraj Natrajan What are the other options considering 5 players will be retained by an incumbent franchise (total 40 players by 8 franchises)?

zen Posted April 29, 2021 Author Posted April 29, 2021 (edited) Below are the players likely to be retained by the franchises: CSK: Dhoni (unless he retires on a high with CSK likely to be in the playoffs), Jadeja, FDP, S Curran, & D Chahar/Raina DC: Pant, Shaw, Dhawan/Iyer, Rabada & may be Norjke/Hetmyer ... so Iyer could probably be out, Pant may remain as captain KKR: Russell, Cummins, Gill (?), Morgan (?) & Karthik/Naraine MI (5 from): Rohit, Bumrah, SDP, SKY, Krunal, Pollard & Boult PK: KL, Shami (?), Pooran (?), Gayle (if fit) & Agarwal(?) RCB: Kohli, Maxwell, ABDV, Siraj (?) & Chahal (?) ... Padikkal is uncapped RR: Samson, Buttler, Stokes, Archer & Morris ... Tewatia is uncapped SRH: Warner, Bairstow, Rashid, Bhuvi & Pandey/Natarajan/Williamson Edited April 29, 2021 by zen

Imagine Captain SDP walking out with 100K ppl supporting him Yes 100k people in the stadium will support him when he bats for against the Ahmedabad side. Very plausible. What song for the Ahmedabad franchise?

Very plausible. can only retain 3 Ind capped players. SDP may have an ordinary IPL this time, a blessing in disguise, so MI may not retain him Quote What song for the Ahmedabad franchise? let the franchise form first, then based on the players, a theme can be applied Mariyam 1
GeeGaw Posted April 29, 2021 Posted April 29, 2021 DC should keep Pant, Shaw, Iyer, Rabada and Nortje. Dhawan has been fine the last two seasons but he’s nearing the end of the road. Hetmyer is also fine but far from irreplaceable. Despite getting tonked in one over today, Rabada looked much better. Still, last half of last season, this season so far and his previous international matches this year he doesn’t look his prime form. I don’t think they let him go, but he may not be a 100% sure thing.

Global.Baba Posted April 30, 2021 Posted April 30, 2021 bring Harshal Patel as the icon player. I mean he has already outperformed icon players from season 1 like Yuvraj,Dravid, VVS in this tournament alone :)

Krunal is one guy they ll pay huge amount to get back.....teams can ruin their purse by bidding on krunal. Kishen is another whom If needed they can let go off.

Rashid they wont let go and it wud be a straight williamson vs warner . Now problem arsies if their is no RTM.

Serpico Posted May 1, 2021 Posted May 1, 2021 No way Mumbai will let go of Pandya after one bad season. The retention rules will be changed to 4 Indian players, if it comes to that

sscomp32 Posted May 1, 2021 Posted May 1, 2021 Kohli values Siraj more than Chahal. So if the choice comes he is going to leave Chahal.
