In fact, it is being said that the team can release its three veteran players Faf du Plessis, Cameron Green and Glenn Maxwell. Let us tell you that these three players did not perform well in the last season.
Glenn Maxwell
Maxwell disappointed the most, this player worth Rs 12.25 crore scored just 52 runs last season. RCB retained Maxwell for Rs 11 crore before the mega auction of IPL 2022. While this all-rounder performed very well in seasons 2022 and 2023, this player flopped in 2024. He scored only 52 runs in 9 innings and took only 6 wickets. He failed to retain his place in the playing XI.
Faf Duplessis
