IPL 2024: ‘Babar Azam to Go Unsold in IPL Auction?’ – Pakistan Fan’s Query Sparks Brutal Response
Pakistani players are banned from the IPL.
The Indian Premier League (IPL) stands as the epitome of T20 cricket leagues worldwide, drawing premier players from all corners of the globe for this prestigious tournament.
However, due to political tensions between India and Pakistan, players from Pakistan are not permitted to participate in the IPL, a policy enacted following the 26/11 terrorist attack in Mumbai.
It’s worth noting that Pakistani players such as Shoaib Akhtar, Sohail Tanvir, Shahid Afridi, Shoaib Malik, Salman Butt, and a few others did participate in the inaugural season of the IPL.
Recently, a query on social media sparked discussions among fans about the hypothetical IPL auction price for Babar Azam.
The reactions were predominantly humorous, with a majority of Indian fans suggesting that Babar Azam would likely go unsold in the IPL, while some proposed that IPL teams might prefer players like Shaheen Afridi and Naseem Shah.
