Dhoni's CSK Set to Make Big Move, May Release Star Player Worth Rs 140000000 Ahead of IPL 2027, Here's What We Know so Far

CSK could free up ₹14.2 crore by releasing the allrounder, a move that would give the franchise more flexibility before the mini-auction.

  • Chennai Super Kings could release all-rounder Prashant Veer ahead of the IPL 2027 mini-auction scheduled for December 16 in Goa, according to a Cricbuzz report.
  • Veer struggled during his debut IPL season, scoring just 60 runs and failing to claim a single wicket across six matches, failing to justify his ₹14.2 crore price tag.
  • CSK currently holds ₹2.4 crore in auction purse, rising to ₹7.4 crore with budget increases, while middle-order batter Kartik Sharma outperformed Veer with 295 runs across 11 matches.
  • Franchises must submit final retention lists by November 15, though CSK officials told Cricbuzz that no final decision on retentions and releases has been taken.
  • Releasing Veer does not necessarily mean CSK has abandoned his potential; the franchise reportedly views the 20-year-old as a promising prospect and could attempt to re-acquire him at the auction.
