Rishabh Pant, IPL 2025: When teams announced their reserved rosters for IPL 2025, they made a number of surprising decisions. It was already expected that some big-name players would be released from their respective teams, and that’s exactly what happened. Especially the release of Rishabh Pant by Delhi Capitals was not accepted by anyone. Well, now he has been released, but the big question is which team Rishabh Pant will be seen playing for in next year’s IPL.
Rishabh Pant auction could see a prize war break out
Rishabh Pant has been the captain of Delhi Capitals in IPL so far. He also performed well in the team as captain. Till a few days ago, if anyone was asked to guess who the DC team could retain, the first name that would come up would definitely be Rishabh Pant. But now the story has changed. They will now appear at an auction taking place this month. In fact, almost all teams will bet on Rishabh Pant and there might be a bonus fight. If this happens, the team with the most prize money will win.
Kings XI Punjab can bet big on Pant
Now if we talk about the wallet, after releasing the players’ salaries, it also determines how much money each team will have when all ten teams participate in the IPL auction. If we talk about the biggest money then Kings XI Punjab’s name comes first. The team retained only two players, both of whom did not play. This means that the team has been very wise to retain players and not spend too much money. He now has over 100 crore rupees left in his wallet.
Kings XI Punjab still have the highest prize money
Kings XI Punjab will go into the auction for Rs 110.50 crore and no one has that much money. If Punjab decide to have Rishabh Pant join their team, then no other team can compete with them. Specially, Kings XI Punjab will also be looking for their captain. Rishabh Pant has captained Delhi previously. In this case, he himself would like to join a team that has the opportunity to serve as captain. This means that for Rishabh Pant, maybe other teams will be better than Punjab. But one thing is for sure, the atmosphere will be interesting when Rishabh Pant’s name is called at the auction.
