IPL 2023 Retention: Rajasthan Royals (RR) Retained And Released Players List

Rajasthan Royals are expected to release Rassie van der Dussen along with three other players ahead of IPL 2023 mini-auction.

After having a few underwhelming seasons, the inaugural champions of the Indian Premier League, Rajasthan Royals (RR) finally made an impact as a unit in the 2022 edition of the tournament as they reached the final of the lucrative league.

Rajasthan Royals assembled the best possible squad in the mega-auction, held earlier this year in February. They have had all bases covered right from the auction table and it reflected right in their performance in IPL 2022.

They won nine matches in the league stage out of the 14 they played and grafted their way to the final of the tournament, where they suffered a seven wickets defeat at the hands of Gujarat Titans (GT).

However, while there some top-notch picks clearly paid dividends in the cash-rich league, some players have failed to deliver as per expectations. Hence, we might witness Rajasthan Royals releasing some players ahead of IPL 2023 mini-auction.
