While KL Rahul is on his way out, West Indies' Nicholas Pooran is set to stay at LSG

Iyer, who's had issues with his shoulder in the past, current has an IPL salary of INR 12.25 crore. He was bought by KKR two years ago, and has since been their premier batter, and now captain.

However, reports suggest the franchise did not align with his expectations.

IPL 2024 winning captain Shreyas Iyer could part ways with KKR, after the franchise couldn't accommodate the "exorbitant" fees the India player is demanding, according to Times of India.

Gujarat Titans captain Shubman Gill has decided to ask for a pay cut so that GT can retain a core group of players.

• According to Cricbuzz, the five retentions are:
  
  Pat Cummins
  Heinrich Klaasen
  Abhishek Sharma
  Travis Head
  Nitish Kumar Reddy
