The eight teams have to submit their list on Tuesday

The current eight Indian Premier League (IPL) franchises will present their player retention rosters for the upcoming release on Tuesday.

They are allowed to keep a maximum of four, while the two new franchises, Lucknow and Ahmedabad, can take three from the rest of the player pool ahead of the January auction.

The total salary for the IPL auction has been set at Rs 90 crore per team and the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has made it clear that existing teams can select up to three Indian players, with or without limits. A maximum of two foreign players and two Indian players can be part of four reservations.

Sportstar has spoken to various franchisees about what the potential queue will look like.

Delhi Capitals: They are sure to retain current captain Rishabh Pant, Prithvi Shaw, and Aksar Patel. Among the foreign players, the franchise is expected to choose Enrique Norte over Cajeso Rabada.

Mumbai Indians: The five-time winner of the title is expected to retain Captain Rohit Sharma and Jaspreet Bumrah. Among the foreign recruits, Kiron Pollard could be preferred, while there might be a toss between Suryakumar Yadav and Ishaan Kishan. The Pandya brothers, Hardik and Kunal, will go to the auction collection until Imtiaz Ahmedabad franchise chooses one or both of them.

Chennai Super Kings: MS. Dhoni remains the captain, while Ravindra Jadeja and Ruturaj Gaikwad must also remain. Moin Ali might just be your favorite off-roader out there.

Punjab Kings: The team can keep Mayank Agarwal and Ravi Bishnoi. There may be a toss between the experienced Mohammed Al Shami and the young man Arshdeep Singh. NS. With Rahul ready to move to one of the new franchises, possibly Lucknow, the franchise is undecided about keeping it overseas.

Kolkata Knight Riders: All eyes will be on Ewen Morgan. While there is talk that the Knight Riders may not eventually retain him, his success in IPL 2021 could force the team to change their minds. Among the Indians, the franchisee can choose Venkatesh Iyer, Shopman Gill, or Varun Chakravarthy. Sunil Naren will surely continue among the foreign players.

Rajasthan Royals: Sanju Samsun will continue as captain, while the franchisee can choose either Yashsvi Jaiswal or Chetan Sakarya. Joss Butler will likely remain one of the foreign teams. And the franchise could put Ben Stokes or Jofra Archer against an Indian player.

Royal Challengers Bangalore: Virat Kohli, Glenn Maxwell, and Yosvendra Chahal will remain. The fourth player could be Harshal Patel, who made his very good debut in India after the memorable IPL 2021.

Sunrisers Hyderabad: Kane Williamson will likely stay in place, while Rashid Khan will be the second choice. Abdul Samad may be the only Indian detained.
