Australia’s Jake Fraser-McGurk emerged as a revelation for the Delhi Capitals in IPL 2024. He has brought back to the side in the following auctions for Rs 9 crore via the RTM option, but failed to replicate his heroics.

Indian spinner Ravi Bishnoi spent a few years at the Lucknow Super Giants, and was released from the franchise this year at an evaluation of Rs 11 crore. He performed decently last year, picking 9 wickets, and could be a big draw at the IPL 2026 auctions.

Andre Russell had been with KKR since 2014, winning two titles with the franchise and providing countless memorable innings. Unfortunately, he hasn’t been at his best in the last few editions, ultimately surfacing as a Rs 12 crore release.

Matheesha Pathirana brew trouble for batsmen in his initial IPL seasons, courtesy of his unorthodox slinging action. However, he had a pretty average outing with CSK in the latest edition, resulting in a Rs 13 crore release from the 5-time champions.

Venkatesh Iyer is the third-most expensive Indian player ever bought in an IPL auction. KKR acquired him for Rs 23.75 after an impressive run in 2024, but he too, like McGurk, had a disappointing season last year, resulting in his release.
