The Indian versatile Venkatesh Iyer, one of the most expensive purchases of the 2025 IPL mega sale with a huge crore of 23.75 ₹, is likely to leave Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) before the next auction. With the IPL Trading window currently open, Venkatesh Iyer is likely to join the new franchise for the next season.
The Kolkata Knight Riders had broken the bank to Iyer, but things did not go as planned. The versatile only succeeded in an average of 20 in IPL 2025. Its shape dropped, then the injuries disturbed it, then it was finally deposited from the XI.

Ishan had a decent season of 2025, marking 354 points for SRH and even breaking a century. Despite his decent season, Sunrisers Hyderabad would be ready to sacrifice Ishan for Iyer before the 2026 IPL auction. It is said that KKR and SRH were involved in commercial talks.
The left -handed striker fits perfectly into the KKR plan while looking for a first -rate aggressive counter goalkeeper. On the other hand, Sunrisers Hyderabad is looking for a powerful average versatile order. Iyer could be the solution if he finds the form.
The reports indicate that the two teams consider this business as a win-win, but there is not yet an official word. In the midst of these talks, there is more dramatic brewing, because even the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) could jump in the race to exchange Venkatesh Iyer. With the open IPL trading window, this could be one of the largest swaps before the IPL 2026 auction.
CSK and GT in race for Glenn Maxwell; Liam Livingstone began to leave RCB
Meanwhile, the Kings of Punjab (PBKS) are also interested in negotiating Glenn Maxwell. The Australian versatile had a bad season with PBKS, scoring only 48 points in seven -rounds before an injury ended its season. Now media reports suggest that Chennai Super Kings (CSK) may be interested in involving Maxwell on board. Gujarat Titans (GT) could also take a step.
The GT is likely to release Glenn Phillips from New Zealand to make room for Glenn Maxwell. The next line is Liam Livingstone, who played for the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in IPL 2025 and has not met expectations either.

DC and Mi Eye Rishabh in a shocking trade agreement
But the most surprising commercial rumor surrounds Rishabh Pant. The star Indian Wcomkeketkeeper-Batter was chosen by Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) for a huge crore of 27 ₹ last season during the 2025 mega sale.
However, Pant did not have an excellent season, but it is very unlikely that the LSG separates from the most expensive player in the history of IPL. However, the Capitals of Delhi (DC) would now have eager to bring Pant on board before IPL 2026. Even MI showed his interest in Pant.
