Complete list of foreign players with their availability status

IPL 2025: Even the tournament is going to start in a few days from now, teams are still not certain if their major foreign players will be available or not.
IPL 2025 is ready to resume on 17 May, but unfortunately the status of foreign stars is still not known. Or at least, there is a lot of confusion around it. Call it fear in the international calendar, or the upcoming chain, but some foreign stars will not make it for the rest of the tournament to ensure, while a large part will still continue to play.
This means that some teams are also likely to be affected due to this. Insidesport takes a look at the current status of all foreign players in all teams.
Batting for Mi?
The biggest challenge for MI would be to change the choice of Ryan Reclleton and Will Jack, which will not be available after the group’s stages. Both have scored 336 and 195 runs in the tournament so far, and their departure can disrupt the team’s balance. All-rounder Corbin Bosch will also leave on May 26 as Cricket South Africa has withdrawn all WTC final-bound players by May 30.

No hazelwood means no IPL title for RCB?
Perhaps the biggest shock may come in the way of RCB. The team was ready for its first title before the break. And now, Bethel will not be available after May 25, and a similar situation will be a case for Lungi NGD. But where it will hurt the most, that his best bowler, Josh Hazelwood will be completely absent. He has 18 wickets in only 10 matches.
But according to a new report on Thursday, it seems that Australians are coming to India. The confusion still remains.

Cloud on DC, Mitchell Starc suspect
Jake Fraser-Mackgrack has confirmed that he will not return for the remaining matches. While DC has announced Mustafizur Rahman, he has not received NOC from Bangladesh. Instead, he will play in a series against UAE and Pakistan. Therefore, he is also suspicious. Meanwhile, Mitchell Starc is unlikely for the remaining matches as he is not yet confirming his availability. Triston Stabs will join the team but will only be available for the league stage.

No matter who is, who is?
Once again, SRH is outside, so no matter who plays for them, or not. Travis Head and Vian Malders play with Pat Cummins until the last league match. Saying that, expected, the team will come with better performance in the remaining fixtures.

Kolkata cover well, but very thin likely
His main players, Quinton de Coke, Russell, Sunil Narin, Moin Ali and Nortze are all going to play. But with only 5–10% probability of playoff qualification, they should only win their remaining matches. That’s it.

LSG is to be hurt hard, but qualification out of question
The team is still not out of the competition, but then there is not much for them in IPL 2025. It said that his main man, Markram and Marsh, all will play league matches. If in the case, they move forward, Miller and Gorn are available.

Best team GT is sure to suffer
He is the title contender and without Butler and Rabada, his possibility will be highly affected. Butler has 500 runs in 11 matches. Rabada played only two, but then he is an excellent bowler. So the team ideally wanted him. A new report suggested that the English batsman will not come, and instead, the Kusal Mendis will join the team. Another says, that group will remain until the end of the steps.
