IPL 2026 Releases: Full list of players released by franchises with price tags in INR ahead of IPL 2026 Auction

All ten franchises in the Indian Premier League (IPL) have named the list of players they wish to release on retention deadline day on Saturday, November 15. With a mini-auction on the horizon, the teams were given the liberty to retain and release as many players as they wish, while the salary cap remained affixed.

Unexpectedly, the top-performing franchises from the previous season, the Punjab Kings (PBKS) and the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB), who made it to the finals, have not released too many names, wishing to keep their core intact. On the other hand, the below-par sides from IPL 2025, who were among the active teams in the trade window, have released a fair share of players, including some high-profile names.

The 2026 IPL mini auction is reportedly set to take place overseas next month, with the date yet to be officially announced.
