IPL 2024 Retentions: KKR Release Thakur And Ferguson; SRH Let Go Of Brook And Tyagi
Kolkata Knight Riders: Two-time champions Kolkata Knight Riders have retained the West Indies duo of Andre Russell and Sunil Narine, while releasing 12 players, including India all-rounder Shardul Thakur and New Zealand pacer Lockie Ferguson.
On the other hand, Sunrisers Hyderabad have let go of six players, including England batter Harry Brook and uncapped India pacer Kartik Tyagi. Ferguson played only three matches last season due to a hamstring injury, which was also the reason for Thakur missing a few matches in IPL 2023. Umesh Yadav and Tim Southee have also been released by KKR.
Brook, meanwhile, was released by SRH after being bought for a whopping INR 13.25 crores. But he couldn’t set the stage on fire in IPL 2023, making 190 runs in 11 matches, including a century.
