Punjab Kings have been among the most least-performing teams in the history of the Indian Premier League. PBKS have had the back of many big names such as Liam Livingstone, Shikhar Dhawan, Kagiso Rabada, Nicholas Pooran, Glenn Maxwell and others. However, these players have been of no use for the franchise and the franchise has finished at the bottom of the table in almost every edition of the tournament. The likes of Shashank Singh, Prabhsimran Singh and Ashutosh Sharma performed for the Punjab Kings in the IPL 2024 and the team management is expected to back these players in the IPL 2025 mega auction. Here is a list of possible retentions for Punjab Kings in the IPL 2025 auction: SRH Retentions For IPL 2025: List of Players Sunrisers Hyderabad Can Likely Retain Ahead of Indian Premier League Mega Auction.

Shashank Singh

Shashank Singh played some brilliant knocks during the IPL 2024 while batting in the middle order. Shashank emerged among the top batters for the franchise and nearly helped them win matches by taking them until the last over. Shashank can be among the top possible retentions for Punjab Kings.

Ashutosh Sharma

Just like Shashank Singh, Ashutosh Sharma is another possible retention for the Punjab Kings. Ashutosh provided brilliant finishing touch to the innings for PBKS in IPL 2024 which makes him among the top picks for the Punjab Kings to get retained in the IPL 2025 mega auction.

Jonny Bairstow

Jonny Bairstow smashed a brilliant hundred during Punjab Kings' record chase during the IPL 2024 wherein the team chased down over 250 runs. Bairstow is among the big foreign players and can provide the much-needed boost to the middle order. However, his form might be a concern for the franchise ahead of the tournament. KKR Retentions For IPL 2025: List of Players Kolkata Knight Riders Can Likely Retain Ahead of Indian Premier League Mega Auction.

Arshdeep Singh

Indian pacer Arshdeep Singh was among the heroes of the Indian team during their triumph in the T20 World Cup 2024. Arshdeep bowled crucial overs throughout the tournament and played a major role in helping the team win the tournament. The left-arm pacer can bowl brilliant yorkers towards the death and will be a brilliant retention for the franchise.
