Good news for RCB and Punjab Kings before IPL 2025
Caribbean Premier League 2024: The IPL 2025 season is still far away, but the ruckus between the teams has already started. Ever since the retention rules have been issued by BCCI, the franchises have been racking their brains over this. All 10 teams have to submit their retention list to BCCI by October 31, after which the auction will take place. Meanwhile, the franchises are also keeping an eye on the matches being played around the world to see which player is performing how. Meanwhile, CPL i.e. Caribbean Premier League has come to an end, which was quite a blast. This one win has brought smiles on the faces of two IPL teams.
St. Lucia Kings won CPL title
Actually, this time the final of CPL i.e. Caribbean Premier League was played between St. Lucia Kings and Guyana Amazon Warriors. St. Lucia Kings was captained by Faf Duplessis, while Guyana Amazon Warriors was commanded by Imran Tahir. In the match, the team of St. Lucia Kings, captained by Faf Duplessis, prevailed and captured the title by defeating Guyana Amazon Warriors by 6 wickets. Now the question is why will IPL teams be happy with this? Actually, Punjab Kings also has a stake in the St. Lucia Kings team, whose co-owner is film actress Preity Zinta. His team has not been able to win the IPL title even once, but has definitely succeeded in becoming the champion of CPL.
Faf du Plessis is the captain of RCB in IPL
Meanwhile, RCB also has a connection with this victory. That is, we have already told you that Faf Du Plessis was captaining St. Lucia Kings, he is the captain of RCB i.e. Royal Challengers Bangalore in IPL. For some time now, questions were being raised whether the RCB team will retain Faf Du Plessis and keep him as captain in next year’s IPL or will let him go. If RCB has decided to release him then it is possible that this decision may be reconsidered.
Will RCB retain Faf du Plessis for next year?
Actually, Faf Duplessis is currently around 40 years old. After Virat Kohli left the captaincy of RCB, he has been in charge of the team, but he has not been able to win the title yet. The auction this time will be for three years. Will Faf du Plessis continue playing for the next three years? Now he is away from international cricket, but is definitely playing in the league. It remains to be seen what decision the RCB team takes on this entire matter by 31st October. But whatever retention there will be, it will be very interesting, this also seems almost certain.
