The 2016 winners have retained two uncapped Indian players in the form of Abdul Samad and Umran Malik (for 4 crores each) alongside their skipper Kane Williamson (14 crores) . Williamson was appointed as skipper in the middle of the season last year after David Warner had a horrendous time with the bat. The team was also struggling to win games. This year, Warner has been released by the franchise and it is pretty much confirmed that his seven-year association with the team has ended as well.
