The IPL mini-auction is almost approaching, and organizations have parted ways with certain players who did not live up to expectations. This time, several organizations have shown no mercy to their previous top-tier performers by excluding them from their squads for 2023. These names, which did not make the retention list, will be auctioned off on December 23, 2022, in Kochi.
These significant figures may no longer be valuable to their former franchises, but other teams may be enticed to add them to their rosters in the upcoming auction based on their reputation and performance in international T20Is.
CSK, the four-time IPL champion, has released several well-known names that have done well for them and have the ability to provide performances with their brilliance for IPL 2023. No one can deny their skill based on their outstanding track record in the league and international cricket.
3 CSK Released Players Who Could Earn a High Bid in the IPL 2023 Mini-Auction
-
Dwayne Bravo
Dwayne Bravo was not on the Chennai Super Kings’ retention list for the 2023 season. Bravo, who has played in every CSK season since 2011, struggled last season.
He has failed to deliver desired results to the team for the last four years, which was a major reason for him to go under the hammer last year to return to CSK for a reduced fee of INR 4.40 crores.
This year, CSK has left him off the retention list once more, and other franchises may be interested in acquiring his services. He was ineffective with both the bat and the ball last year, scoring only 23 runs at an average of 11.50 and taking 16 wickets at an expensive economy rate of 8.71.
The former West Indies all-rounder played for the Mumbai Indians from 2008 to 2010, and the MI could trust him to fill the shoes of their old servant Kieron Pollard this time around.

Chris Jordan
Chris Jordan was bought for INR 3.60 crore by Chennai Super Kings (CSK). He was mostly chosen to deal with the problems with death bowling. But the England bowler didn’t seem to be in sync because he only took two wickets in four games, which is a horrible economy rate of 10.52.
In the last edition, he didn’t do much for CSK, but his recent play in two World Cup games against India and Pakistan could get him another IPL contract in the mini-auction. Teams like the Punjab Kings and the Delhi Capitals could bid for him to improve their bowling attacks.
He could hit speeds of over 140 km/h and throw accurate yorkers and bouncers. On his day, he could shake up any batting line-up in the world. He could be one of the best players at the next auction and get a lot of money from teams.

Adam Milne
Adam Milne was purchased by Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the 2022 auction for INR 1.90 crore and appeared in just one game and bowled only 15 deliveries before suffering a hamstring injury and being ruled out of the tournament. He couldn’t make it in CSK’s scheme of things after failing to get his services completely in the previous season, so the franchise decided to release him.
The franchises may be interested in him in the auction because the New Zealand cricketer can routinely bowl between 140 and 150 km/h. With his speed, he could gain a spot in the Punjab Kings (PBKS) to aid Kagiso Rabada, Arshdeep Singh, and Rahul Chahar. While with the Gujarat Titans, he may be a key figure in the pace attack alongside Mohammed Shami and Hardik Pandya.
