Kolkata Knight Riders bought Bangladesh wicket-keeper batsman Litton Das and all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan for the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023.
Shakib and Litton were unsold when they were introduced to the auction in Kochi. Later on, they both attracted Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and will be under Khan's pandal in the upcoming Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023.
Both of them were bought by KKR at their base price, Rs 50 Lakh for Litton Das and 1.5 Crore for Shakib Al Hasan. Kolkata was the sole bidder for Litton and Shakib, while no other IPL franchise was interested in the bids.
Obviously, this is not the first time for Shakib in IPL or Kolkata, after being overlooked in the last season - Shakib is back in the galaxy of knights again.
On the other hand, Litton Das is the seventh cricketer from Bangladesh to get selected by an IPL team, following Mohammad Ashraful, Abdur Razzak, Mashrafe Bin Mortaza, Shakib Al Hasan, Tamim Iqbal, and Mustafizur Rahman.
There were two more Bangladeshi cricketers introduced in the auction this year. But Taskin Ahmed and Afif Hossain did not attract any bids for their base price of Rs 50 lakh each.
Anyways, Bangladesh's 'cutter-master' Mustafizur Rahman has already been retained by his previous franchise Delhi Capital in November.
Although, earlier, The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) informed the franchises about the availability of the players for the 2023 IPL. Which turned out Bangladesh players could just take part for a little time of the tournament because of some international series of Bangladesh national cricket team that is supposed to take place in the same time-frame.
