Active Trade Negotiations & Verified Movement

Hardik Pandya (Mumbai Indians to CSK / KKR) Active Dialogue

Following high-level boardroom discussions, Chennai Super Kings have expressed keen interest in securing Hardik Pandya to anchor their seam-bowling all-rounder slot. Mumbai Indians are reluctant to release their designated skipper without a marquee capped Indian pacer or equivalent purse recovery in return. KKR remain a third party monitoring valuation terms.

Rishabh Pant & Kuldeep Yadav Multi-Franchise Deal Terms In Draft

Delhi Capitals and Lucknow Super Giants have engaged in structured trade dialogues. The framework would see Pant return to the Arun Jaitley Stadium, resolving DC's middle-order wicketkeeper deficit, while Kuldeep Yadav shifts to Lucknow to address LSG's specialist spin attacking options alongside Ravi Bishnoi.

Yashasvi Jaiswal & RR Core Declared Non-Tradable

Rajasthan Royals have officially closed the door to all rival approaches for left-handed opener Yashasvi Jaiswal. Head Coach Rahul Dravid confirmed that Jaiswal, alongside Sanju Samson, remains the bedrock of their retention slate for the upcoming cycle.

Impact of the 'Uncapped Player' Retention Rule

IPL 2027 Trade Window & Transfer FAQs

How does an IPL player trade deal work between franchises?
An IPL trade can take two forms: a direct player-for-player swap or an all-cash transfer where the acquiring franchise purchases the player's contracted salary purse. Both franchises and the player must mutually agree before the IPL Governing Council formally ratifies the transfer.
What is the status of the Hardik Pandya trade to Chennai Super Kings?
Chennai Super Kings held exploratory discussions with Mumbai Indians regarding Hardik Pandya, but Mumbai Indians have prioritized keeping their Indian core intact unless an equivalent frontline capped bowler is exchanged.
How does the 'Uncapped Player' retention rule apply to MS Dhoni?
Under BCCI regulations, an Indian player who has been retired from international cricket for over five years can be classified as an 'uncapped player'. This allows CSK to retain MS Dhoni for a reduced purse deduction of INR 4 Crore.
What is the trade window deadline for IPL 2027?
The pre-auction trade window closes approximately one week before the mega auction date. The trade window then reopens after the auction and concludes one week prior to the start of the tournament.
