Before the 18th season of the Indian Premier League, a mega auction is being held in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. In this auction, fast bowler Mohammed Shami, who was a part of Gujarat Titans till last season, has been showered with money in the auction. Sunrisers Hyderabad have joined them for Rs 10 crore. His base price was 2 crores. Other franchises also bid on Shami but in the end Hyderabad won.
Kolkata Knight Riders and Chennai Super Kings started bidding on Shami, the first player of the second set. After this, Lucknow Super Giants also entered the field. Finally Sunrisers Hyderabad entered. Gujarat Titans did not use the Right to Match card. In such a situation, Hyderabad bought him for Rs 10 crore.
Mohammed Shami has played for 4 franchises in IPL so far. He was associated with Kolkata Knight Riders in IPL 2013. In the first season, he got a chance to play only 3 matches. Delhi Daredevils signed Shami before IPL 2014. That season Shami took 7 wickets in 12 matches. Next season, Shami could not play any match due to injury. Shami also got injured in IPL 2018, so the franchise released him.
Swinging his way to Hyderabad in style 😎🔥
