Rohit Sharma says IPL franchises must pick Bangladesh cricketers.
Recently, IPL made it official that the IPL 2023 Auctions would happen on December 23rd. It will be a mini-auction but there would be a few teams looking to make some key signings. In recent years, not a lot of Bangladesh cricketers have got a chance in the IPL. While Mustafizur Rahman has played often, even Shakib Al Hasan‘s availability in IPL has been inconsistent. In the recently held T20 World Cup, Bangladesh put up a decent show.
Speaking about the talent in Bangladesh, Rohit said, “Bangladesh has Quality players and match-winners and I genuinely feel IPL teams should get a chance and pick them in the upcoming IPL auction.” It now needs to be seen if franchises would select any players from the subcontinent team.
