IPL 2024: Royal Challengers Bangalore Retained Players, Released Players and Purse Remaining ahead of Auction

And it’s here. The deadline day as everyone loves to call it. All ten franchises have almost run out of time to carry out business in India’s grandest cricketing festival’s trading window. Reports however suggest that the Trade Window is open until a week before the auction. We’re also only a few weeks away from teams splurging around millions to be crowned champions of India in 2024.

Royal Challengers Bangalore, ahead of the mini-auction have released a few big-money purchases to clear up their wage bill. Wanindu Hasaranga, Josh Hazlewood, Harshal Patel, Michael Bracewell, Finn Allen, David Willey, Wayne Parnell, Sonu Yadav, Avinash Singh, Siddharth Kaul, Kedar Jadhav are on their way out.

Royal Challengers Bangalore, M Chinnaswamy Stadium and Bengaluru’s emotion. There’s been truckloads of pressure, an immense amount of expectation, hard-wired ability to move on from heartache. There’s also been love. Well, there’s been much more than just love. 

Every season the fans turn up with a heart as big as their city. Usually, there’s much more to life than just cricket, and when one perceives it that way, half the pressure is off. But there’s something about Royal Challengers Bangalore who take pressure head-on. They might not have crossed the finish line, but have given the city some of the sweetest moments it has had, and that’s probably why Bengaluru’s admiration for the franchise is exospheric. 

Trying to move on from yet another heartbreak, RCB have been burning the candles at both ends pulling off some managerial and strategic changes as England’s performance director Mo Bobat joined the Bengaluru franchise as the director of cricket operations. 

Andy Flower, with an incredible coaching CV, having won the Pakistan Super League, the International League T20, the Hundred, and also the T10 league as a coach reunited with RCB skipper Faf du Plessis, whom he worked with at St Lucia Kings in the Caribbean. RCB have also traded in Himachal Pradesh’s Mayank Dagar from Sunrisers Hyderabad for Bengal’s Shahbaz Ahmed. 

Well, trophies are monumental, and they do determine success more often than not. They say it is a marathon and not a sprint. But when the numbers rack up, it is more destination than the journey, no? But regardless of how the league turns out in 2024, cricket and IPL will move on, and RCB will be a part of the move forward.
