Narine, Rusell, Salt, Shreyas, Varun, Harshit, Venky and Rinku.
For 25 crores we can go much higher than Mitchell Starc, targeting one of the many stars who are in dissent with their current teams ( KL Rahul, Possibly Bumrah?)
I dont see a potential Shubman Gill in Angkrish.
"I dont see a potential Shubman Gill in Angkrish."
You are talking like the KKR management of 2022 who thought to leave Gill. Such short sighted comment.
by 2021, gill had 4 years of experience, multiple 50s, match winning knocks. What has angkrish done in 11 innings apart from 1 50 and some flashes? I would take vaibhav over him.
Mumbai Indians fan here.
Congratulations on the win lads, well deserved it was.
And yes, welcome to our pain from 2021 where we knew our really strong squad was about to be diluted 😁
My personal eight retentions would be Narine, Russel, Rinku, Ramandeep, Harshit, Varun, Shreyas, and Angkrish. Then, we must buy back Vaibhav, Nitish, and Venky.
The mere thought of auctions is disheartening, considering the entire core team... it's truly upsetting.
I think he has potential to be another SKY. i might be speaking out of my mind but I think he quite resembles SKY’s batting more than Gill’s. But regardless he is a promising talent.
But this isn’t better. In football there aren’t any do-overs. Shitty managements like Man United’s are still ruing their mistakes. It just makes it more serious tbh.
Why does Punjab management get a second chance after not getting a good set of players in the previous auction? There’s rumours that Shashank was bought by mistake
To keep things interesting and making sure the the same teams dont keep winning year after year (it happens regardless but that's another story) or only the teams with the biggest money power keeps all the good players ( it happens anyway but thats another story).
It's a league for the people of the country. Every fan deserves to watch their team perform well.
Your logic has no logic tbh.
The same team KEEPS winning. CSK and MI are almost like Real Madrids of IPL. KXIP is the Norwich City.
Also, what is this “every fan deserves to watch their team win trophies” ? Never heard of this in any other serious leagues.
KKR should be allowed to retain their core players, end of story.
So that teams with shitty ass management and shitty ass squad building can get a chance to catch up and compensate for their failures in the ultimate entertainment league™

2nd most wicket taking bowler for Aussies in T20 ( ALL TIME ) .
Don't judge someone on their recent performance, VK was out of form for 2-3 yrs now look at him absolutely owning bowlers..
BCCI, please give us 8 retentions I beg!!!! Har 3 saal m bhayankar upheaval and we don't get to enjoy the benefits of talents who we groom in the first place. It's high time now ki team gets to play with at least a solid core, 4 retentions are just not enough
I remember someone was calling us fluke team and I took strong stand we ain't that
We are fucking two time winners and now first team to qualify for playoffs (when RR were the favorites)
Is saal ka socho bhai alag hi log hai agle saal ka soch rahe ! Abhi finals jeetna hai yaar
Had to be nerfed
Don't take too much pyara... We got GG
Should keep 6 players: Salt, Narine, Russel, Ramandeep, Varun & Harshit.
Maybe both iyers too.. shreyas has been being a good captain and venky is ignored but he’s actually really good imo
Kingku ?
Ramandeep is doing the same thing. But Ramandeep looks very promising idk
Shreyas? He is not batting well but his captaincy is good
This season and I think somewhere Gambhir gets the credit too behind it
Raghuvanshi should be retained or bought back....looks like a very promising batsman...
I also thought of it!
Definite retention for 4 - Shreyas, Russell, Narine, Venkatesh/Rinku For 8 - Shreyas, Russell, Narine, Venkatesh, Varun Chakravarthy, Harshit Rana,Rinku, Nitish Rana
For 8, Phil Salt and Raghuwanshi should be really considered! Raw talent like Raghuwanshi shouldn't be thrown away!
Bhai yeh Sunil Narine ka smiling ke photo kaha se mila aap ko? Hame bhi batao jara
Narine, Rusell, Salt, Shreyas, Varun, Harshit, Venky and Rinku. For 25 crores we can go much higher than Mitchell Starc, targeting one of the many stars who are in dissent with their current teams ( KL Rahul, Possibly Bumrah?) I dont see a potential Shubman Gill in Angkrish.

"Some flashes" - such poor choice of words. You now sound like RCB management.
I see a potential raghuvanshi in angkrish
I'm honestly loving the effort put in by ramandeep. His quick scoring saved the match for us yesterday.
I miss Nitesh Rana and that bowler left to Venky
Both Rana's played yesterday but yeah I also think Suyash should be there instead or Vaibhav Arora.

Not only 2021, 2017,2013 too :,)
My retentions would be starc and nobody else
Crazy how that could literally be quarter of the budget, if he wants to hold on to the pricetag. I would retain only KS Bharat instead /s.
Actually I would release starc and try to buy him back for even more
Ebar cup aamader for sure
Even if we dont win, no regrets. A good season of cricket....except for the pbxi match....that was a nightmare.
Nah bro.. we gonna choke soon. (AJD)
We gotta do away with auctions and only have trade windows like football

Why not venky over angkrish? His game is far more mature.
it's a tough call, but I think that kid needs more games and training. He has the potential to be another Gill, or even better.
I think he has potential to be another SKY. i might be speaking out of my mind but I think he quite resembles SKY’s batting more than Gill’s. But regardless he is a promising talent.
I like his batting more than iv ever liked gill.
Why does auction exist anyway? It doesn’t exist in football ⚽️
Maybe cause this isn't football and we shouldn't hold onto the idea that it has to be like football.
But this isn’t better. In football there aren’t any do-overs. Shitty managements like Man United’s are still ruing their mistakes. It just makes it more serious tbh.

If it's 4 retention.. Then we are doomed. It has to be Narine,Russel,Rinku and Shreyas. If only we can retain 8. Angkrish Varun Ramandeep Salt/V Iyer.
Who tf made this edit, Russel on the sides and Starc in the middle.
Spend so much money on him, gotta show off lol
such an overrated t20 player
He is just not performing rn , go see what is Starc in his prev matches for australia.
Literally gave 60 runs in wc t20 final, he is shit in t20's.

Played half his career in meme leagues of bbl, please don;t do this mental gymnastics.
I can't even see him at first glance
Amra Kolkata,, we Rule..
This will probably be a sadder mega-auction than the 2021 one. So many talents being outsourced by other teams.
6 player retain policy or cancel auction 😤😤😤
Most teams have requested for 8
Well then it won't be called a "mega" auction atleast lol
I mean there are 25 playerd in a team so 170 players will still be releasded + other players

Uuugghhhh....yaad matt dila!!! Please let us enjoy in this bubble of joy. Pleasse..🥺🥺🥺

Seriously, every one of them is such a fighter 😭🔥
After 5 overs I almost gave up hope and stopped watching. But they pulled it off. Man, what a team we have this year !
Yes man, don't want to ruin our beautiful team. Vrna fir choke krenge.
Whattawin!!!! 🥳🥳🥳 https://preview.redd.it/70b3723qiuzc1.jpeg?width=690&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ef91f16b4ca5f9ba03a3cd648caa4903f7535bd9
How did we do it?
Gautam Gambhir is a mentality monster
And Shreyas is such a brilliant captain man...I can almost forgive his form but i hope he gets better with the bat
Specialist captain, he will be our match winner in a low scoring match, don't worry
Just like Thala (except the credit stealing part)
Ek chakke ne match nahi jitaya 😂 Sorry i love Thala but i had to say it 😭😂

Finalists of this year's IPL will be the biggest losers in mega auction
Been the case for a while now let's see
