With the announcement of the IPL 2022 player retentions less than an hour away, various reports suggest that Royal Challengers Bangalore has two confirmed retentions, one of them unsurprisingly being Virat Kohli. The other star player that RCB is set to retain is explosive Australian all-rounder Glenn Maxwell. RCB is also expected to name pacer Mohammad Siraj among its player retentions. Furthermore, various reports suggest that the Bengaluru-based IPL franchise is also interested in retaining the services of wicketkeeper-batsman KS Bharat. However, RCB is reportedly releasing spinner Yuzvendra Chahal who is likely to head to the mega auction. 

RCB will be looking to compensate for the loss of longtime star performer AB de Villiers who recently announced his retirement from all forms of cricket. Two other players in contention for being retained by RCB as their fourth player retention are opening batsman Devdutt Padikkal and bowler Harshal Patel. 

Player retentions will be announced live at 9:30 pm IST on November 30. IPL fans can watch the player retention announcements on Star Sports Network and also online on the Disney+Hotstar OTT platform.

Meanwhile, reports have also surfaced that star Indian batsman KL Rahul and Afghanistan spinner Rashid Khan may be facing one-year bans for breaking IPL protocol after their current franchises Punjab Kings and Sun Risers Hyderabad reportedly complained to the BCCI alleging ‘pursuing & poaching’ by the new, currently unnamed, Lucknow franchise.
