A report in Indian Express said that the teams would be allowed to retain five players with nor Right To Match (RTM) option available. There is a lot of intrigue on how the teams would retain their core. Even if five players are allowed to retain, it would mean that the franchises would have to let go of majority of the players.

In an interaction ahead of the Border-Gavaskar Test series, Marsh was all praise for Pant whom he called a ‘ripping bloke’ and described him as someone who ‘loves winning’. “He’s a ripping bloke. I wish he was Australian. He’s obviously been through a lot over the last few years, and it’s been a hell of a comeback. He’s a positive guy, still really young, and he loves winning. He’s highly competitive for someone who has the persona of being relaxed and always laughing and smiling. He’s got that big smile,” Marsh told Star Sports.
