Rishabh Pant, Kuldeep Yadav, T. Natarajan and Liam Livingstone are among the players to have switched franchises ahead of the IPL 2027 season. Here is a team-wise look at all the confirmed trades, player fees and reported developments.

The IPL 2027 trading window has already witnessed some significant changes, with franchises reshaping their squads ahead of the December 16 mini-auction in Goa.

Among the notable moves, Pant has returned to Delhi Capitals, while England all-rounder Liam Livingstone has joined Chennai Super Kings in a four-player exchange with Sunrisers Hyderabad.

With the November 17 retention deadline approaching, further movement is expected. However, it is important to distinguish completed transactions from deals that are still at the discussion or reporting stage.

IPL 2027: Three major trades explained

1. Rishabh Pant returns to Delhi Capitals

Pant returned to Delhi Capitals after two seasons with Lucknow Super Giants. The wicketkeeper-batter moved for Rs. 15 crore, while Kuldeep Yadav went to Lucknow for Rs. 13.5 crore.

The move brings Pant back to the franchise he represented between 2016 and 2024. Lucknow, meanwhile, adds an established Indian wrist-spinner to its bowling attack.

2. T. Natarajan returns to Sunrisers Hyderabad

Sunrisers Hyderabad brought back left-arm pacer T. Natarajan from Delhi Capitals at a revised fee of Rs. 5 crore. Leg-spinner Zeeshan Ansari moved to Delhi Capitals at his existing fee of Rs. 40 lakh.

Natarajan previously represented SRH between 2020 and 2024, taking 19 wickets in the 2024 season.

3. CSK and SRH complete four-player exchange

The latest confirmed deal involved four players switching franchises.

• CSK gained: Liam Livingstone (Rs. 6 crore) and Jack Edwards (Rs. 3 crore).
• SRH gained: Khaleel Ahmed (Rs. 4.8 crore) and Nathan Ellis (Rs. 2 crore).

Livingstone’s move is particularly noteworthy because he joins CSK at Rs. 6 crore, substantially lower than the Rs. 13 crore SRH had paid for him at the previous auction.

For CSK, the deal adds two all-round options. SRH, meanwhile, strengthens its pace-bowling resources.
