Chennai Super Kings squad
After missing the playoffs on net run rate in 2024, Chennai Super Kings have brought back an old favourite — superstar spinner Ravichandran Ashwin — along with a stack of players looking to revive their flagging IPL careers. With Ravindra Jadeja leading the way, the five-time champions will fancy their chances of scaling the summit once more.

Delhi Capitals squad
After three seasons without a playoff appearance, the Delhi Capitals have invested heavily in their top order by acquiring Indian veteran KL Rahul, English star Harry Brook and Australian youngster Jake Fraser-McGurk. Their bowling stocks also look a lot stronger with the acquisition of Mitchell Starc.
| BATTERS | KL Rahul, Tristan Stubbs, Jake Fraser-McGurk, Harry Brook, Abishek Porel, Faf du Plessis, Donovan Ferreira, Karun Nair |

| BOWLERS | Kuldeep Yadav, Mitchell Starc, T Natarajan, Mukesh Kumar, Mohit Sharma, Dushmantha Chameera |

Gujarat Titans squad
While retaining marquee players Rashid Khan and Shubman Gill, Gujarat Titans have also shelled out on the likes of Kagiso Rabada, Jos Buttler and Mohammed Siraj for IPL 2025. While there is no denying their top-end talent, questions remain about the depth of their local stocks.
| BATTERS | Shubman Gill, Jos Buttler, Sherfane Rutherford, Glenn Phillips, Kumar Kushagra, Anuj Rawat |
|---|---|
| BOWLERS | Rashid Khan, Mohammed Siraj, Kagiso Rabada, Prasidh Krishna, Gerald Coetzee, Gurnoor Brar, Ishant Sharma, Manav Suthar, Kulwant Khejroliya |

Kolkata Knight Riders squad
Kolkata Knight Riders have had to replace a few of the brightest lights in last year’s title-winning team. Quinton de Kock comes in for Phil Salt, while Anrich Nortje and Spencer Johnson will do their best to fill Mitchell Starc’s boots. KKR also spent a pretty penny on Venkatesh Iyer, who could captain the side this season.
| BATTERS | Rikhu Singh, Quinton de Kock, Angkrish Raghuvanshi, Rahmanullah Gurbaz, Rovman Powell, Ajinkya Rahane, Manish Pandey, Luvnith Sisodia |
|---|---|
| BOWLERS | Sunil Narine, Anrich Nortje, Harshit Rana, Spencer Johnson, Vaibhav Arora, Umran Malik, Mayank Markande |
| ALL-ROUNDERS | Venkatesh Iyer, Varun Chakravarthy, Andre Russell, Ramandeep Singh, Moeen Ali, Anukul Roy |
Lucknow Super Giants squad
Rishabh Pant is likely to captain Lucknow Super Giants after they made him the most expensive player in IPL history. Their top six is littered with stars, and their bowling options are ample, but there are some concerns about the depth of LSG’s Indian top-order batting talent.
| BATTERS | Rishabh Pant, Nicholas Pooran, David Miller, Aiden Markram, Matthew Breetzke, Aryan Juyal, Himmat Singh |
|---|---|
| BOWLERS | Mayank Yadav, Ravi Bishnoi, Avesh Khan, Akash Deep, Mohsin Khan, Shamar Joseph, Manimaran Siddharth, Digvesh Rathi, Prince Yadav, Akash Singh |
| ALL-ROUNDERS | Abdul Samad, Ayush Badoni, Mitchell Marsh, Shahbaz Ahmed, Arshin Kulkarni, Yuvraj Chaudhary, Rajvardhan Hangargekar |
Mumbai Indians squad
Mumbai Indians have made some speculative acquisitions for IPL 2025. However, with a rock-solid core that includes Jasprit Bumrah, Rohit Sharma, Suryamukar Yadav and Hardik Pandya, MI will be expected to start the season as title favourites with top cricket betting sites.
| BATTERS | Suryakumar Yadav, Rohit Sharma, Ryan Rickleton, Robin Minz, Bevon Jacobs, Krishnan Shrijith |
|---|---|
| BOWLERS | Jasprit Bumrah, Trent Boult, Deepak Chahar, AM Ghazanfar, Reece Topley, Lizaad Williams, Karn Sharma, Satyanarayana Raju, Ashwani Kumar, Arjun Tendulkar |
| ALL-ROUNDERS | Hardik Pandya, Tilak Varma, Naman Dhir, Will Jacks, Mitchell Santner, Vignesh Puthur, Raj Bawa |
Punjab Kings squad
Punjab Kings briefly made Shreyas Iyer the most expensive player in the IPL as part of a significant shakeup under new coach Ricky Ponting. PK will have only three players returning from last season as they look to improve on their ninth-place finish.
| BATTERS | Shreyas Iyer, Nehal Wadhera, Prabhsimran Singh, Josh Inglis, Vishnu Vinod, Pyla Avinash, Harnoor Singh |
|---|---|
| BOWLERS | Arshdeep Singh, Yuzvendra Chahal, Lockie Ferguson, Vijaykumar Vyshak, Yash Thakur, Kuldeep Sen, Xavier Bartlett |
| ALL-ROUNDERS | Marcus Stoinis, Marco Jansen, Shashank Singh, Priyansh Arya, Azmatullah Omarzai, Harpreet Bar, Aaron Hardie, Suryansh Shedge, Musheer Khan, Praveen Dubey |
Rajasthan Royals squad
Rajasthan Royals have added some real quality to their bowling stocks by signing Jofra Archer, Wanindu Hasaranga and Maheesh Theekshana. Local stars Sanju Samson and Yashasvi Jaiswal lead a star-studded batting lineup, yet there are some questions surrounding RR’s bench strength.
| BATTERS | Sanju Samson, Dhruv Jurel, Shimron Hetmyer, Vaibhav Suryavanshi, Shubham Dubey, Kunal Singh Rathore |
|---|---|
| BOWLERS | Jofra Archer, Tushar Deshpande, Wanindu Hasaranga, Maheesh Teekshana, Sandeep Sharma, Fazalhaq Farooqi, Kwena Maphaka, Akash Mandhwal, Ashok Sharma, Kumar Kartikeya |
| ALL-ROUNDERS | Yashasvi Jaiswal, Riyan Parag, Nitish Rana, Yudhvir Singh |
Royal Challengers Bengaluru squad
Royal Challengers Bengaluru have brought in the experienced Josh Hazlewood and Bhuvneshwar Kumar to boost their pace attack, while Phil Salt looks set to form an enviable partnership with Virat Kohli at the top of the order. RCB’s depth looks solid, which is why most online bookmakers have them among the top four in IPL 2025 title betting.
| BATTERS | Virat Kohli, Phil Salt, Rajat Patidar, Jitesh Sharma, Devdutt Padikkal, Swastik Chikara |
|---|---|
| BOWLERS | Josh Hazlewood, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Rasikh Salam, Yash Dayal, Suyash Sharma, Nuwan Thushara, Lungi Ngidi, Abhinandan Singh, Mohit Rathee |
| ALL-ROUNDERS | Liam Livingstone, Krunal Pandya, Tim David, Jacob Bethell, Romario Shepherd, Swapnil Singh, Manoj Bhandage |
Sunrisers Hyderabad squad
The top-end talent in the Sunrisers Hyderabad squad is beyond question, but their middle order could pose some problems as the season progresses. The bowling looks especially strong with the addition of Adam Zampa and Mohammed Shami.
| BATTERS | Heinrich Klaasen, Travis Head, Ishan Kishan, Abhinav Manohar, Aniket Verma, Atharva Taide, Sachin Baby |
|---|---|
| BOWLERS | Pat Cummins, Mohammed Shami, Rahul Chahar, Adam Zampa, Simarjeet Singh, Eshan Malinga, Jaydev Unadkat, Zeeshan Ansari |
