3 players retained: Virat Kohli (INR 21 crore), Rajat Patidar (INR 11 crore), Yash Dayal (INR 5 crore)
Purse remaining for auction: INR 83 crore (out of INR 120 crore)
Analysis: RCB has retained just three players, with only PBKS retaining fewer. RCB could have retained a couple more players, such as Glenn Maxwell, Cameron Green, or Mohammed Siraj, but chose not to; they likely want to give themselves more options during the auction, especially since RCB has three Right to Match (RTM) cards for some of these players. There are rumors that RCB might go all out for their local boy, KL Rahul, which could explain why they haven't spent much on retentions. Whether it will be Virat Kohli leading the RCB side for one last time or if there will be a new captain remains to be seen.
