The topic for today is about the player transfers in IPL 2020. IPL 2020 is going to be the 13th time the tournament is being held. Owing to the adverse pandemic like situation, the entire tournament is being held in the United Arab Emirates. The tournament has already got off to a rollicking start where we have witnessed some breathtaking games.
The Indian batsmen have been far more superior than their foreign counterparts with some of them even looking in much better shape than their contemporary rivals. Moreover, it has been a tournament where the young Indian batsmen like Mayank Agarwal from Kings XI Punjab or a certain Sanju Samson from Rajasthan Royals have entertained all of us with their exquisite batting display.
However, before the beginning of the tournament, there have been some players who have been released from their respective franchises. While some of them have been quite baffling, to say the least, others have come on the more expected lines. Following is the full list of top players who have been released from their franchises. These top players feature in player transfers in IPL 2020.
Mayank Markande (Mumbai Indians to Delhi Capitals) – INR 20 lakh
The leg spinner who was sensational in the previous season for Mumbai Indians was released from the franchise. The spinner with his deceptive googly’s and subtle variations was an integral part of the team in the previous season.

Sherfane Rutherford (Delhi Capitals to Mumbai Indians) – INR 6.2 crore
