And the cat is finally out of the bag. After months of speculation, all teams have come up with their respective IPL 2026 retention & release list. Punjab Kings had compiled one of the best squads in the IPL 2025, and no wonder, they have stuck to most of their fire power, but have rightly gotten rid of under-performing Glenn Maxwell.
Aaron Hardie is a goner too, and what is surprising is, PBKS has chosen to retain Lockie Ferguson, and plethora of other foreign players. Also, Praveen Dubey and Josh Inglis are out.
