CSK retained and released List: Defending IPL champions Chennai Super Kings (CSK) have a settled and strong squad at the helm, and ahead of the IPL 2024 mini-auction, the franchise needs to make a few decisions looking into the future. While most fans are keen on what the future holds for CSK captain and veteran Mahendra Singh Dhoni, the backroom staff and the think tank are busy penning the final list of retained and released players before the deadline date, Sunday (Nov 26). &nbsp;

Given the history of CSK's working setup, the Chennai-based team would retain most of the players while letting go of those uncertain to donate time due to any commitments or injury scares.&nbsp;

On the retention day, the list of released and retained players were made public.&nbsp;

While Rayudu, one of IPL’s most decorated players, announced his retirement after winning the final last year, England star all-rounder Ben Stokes recently opted out of the upcoming season to manage his workload and fitness.&nbsp;

Having suffered knee issues since the start of 2022, Stokes, who unretired from the ODIs to appear in the recently-concluded World Cup, admitted to be undergoing the much-required knee surgery. Although the franchise is said to be 'in support of his decision' to remain unavailable, CSK's decision-makers contemplated releasing him ahead of the auction.&nbsp;

Here is the&nbsp;list of players released by CSK ahead of the IPL 2024 mini-auction –

RR retained and released list: The inaugural winner of the Indian Premier League (IPL), Rajasthan Royals (RR), is another star-studded team in the tournament. Led by keeper-batter Sanju Samson, and with several match-winners in the squad, they have the potential to fight for their second IPL trophy come the 17th edition.&nbsp;

Finishing fifth in IPL 2023 and failing to qualify for the playoffs would further boost the RR franchise to make the best bids at the IPL 2024 mini-auction. With all eyes on the D-Day, scheduled in Dubai on Tuesday (Dec 19), Rajasthan Royals’ think tank will have a lot of homework to do.&nbsp;

RR also became the first team to complete a trade ahead of the IPL 2024 mini-auction, with batter Devdutt Padikkal joining Lucknow Super Giants (LSG), and&nbsp;while their seamer Avesh Khan coming into the Rajasthan-based franchise.&nbsp;

Meanwhile, RR retained the core but let go of players who either failed to leave a mark last season or don’t fit in their setup moving forward. Outside of Padikkal, who didn't get regular games in the IPL 2023 due to overcrowded top-order, RR let go of some top foreign names, including Joe Root and Jason Holder.

Besides, the Indian spin-bowling pair of KC Cariappa and Murugan Ashwin are also released.

SRH retained and released list: SunRisers Hyderabad was the bottom-most team on the points table last season, with just four wins from 14 league matches. Despite signing some emerging and established names in T20 cricket, the Orange army suffered a dismal fate in IPL 2023.

The IPL 2024 mini-auction is just around the corner, and SunRisers Hyderabad’s think tank must dig in deep to scout and bid for players better suited for their style of play.

Although after Kane Williamson’s departure, South Africa’s Aiden Markram was named the captain, the side’s performance was still in shambles.

With a lot at stake, the SRH released&nbsp;around half a dozen players and will enter the mini-auction scheduled on Tuesday (Dec 19) in Dubai with the pocket full.

Looking from the top order to the bowling department, SRH took&nbsp;some brave calls and will now hope to&nbsp;switch fortunes in the 17th edition.

On Saturday, in the third trade of the season, SRH let go of Mayank Dagar and got Shahbaz Ahmed in return from the Royal Challengers Bangalore.&nbsp;
