BCCI had mandated the eight IPL franchises to issue their retained players for the Indian Premier League 2021 season by January 20, 2021. After the window closed, a total of 139 players were retained by the franchises and 57 players were released from their existing squads back into the IPL Auction Pool. While some teams decided to go into the 2021 season of the Indian cricket extravaganza, there were few teams which released a large part of their existing IPL squads into the Auction Pool in hopes of procuring new players and fine tuning their team composition.

IPL 2021 Retained Players aside, the released players and some new contracts will come under the hammer on February 18, 2021 at Chennai, where the IPL Auctions would be organised by the Board of Cricket Control in India. However not all of them would get a chance to be a part of IPL 2021. This is because every team is allowed a budget and only 25 players in their respective squads. With only 61 positions to fill and hundreds appearing in the auction, it will be interesting to see how IPL Team owners decide to alter the squads and increase their perspectives of winning the 14th edition of the tournament.
