“MI will buy him, no matter what”, Twitter reacts after Sikandar Raza’s base price is INR 50 lakhs at IPL 2023 auction

Indian Premier League (IPL) has successfully completed 15 editions since the inception of the competition in 2008. Since then, the cricket fraternity witnessed plenty of superstars and powerful teams over the years.

Mumbai Indians and Chennai Super Kings have dominated the competition to a massive extent. While MI won five titles, CSK won four titles. On the other hand, players too made a real case for themselves in the tournament.

Batters who tend to flex their muscles in the powerplay overs would gain a great deal of confidence and come through with flying colours in the game. This is when good batters emerge from the ranks to shine at the highest level.

The upcoming IPL 2023 auction is scheduled to be held in Kochi on December 23 and several players will go under the hammer. At the same time, franchises will also be keen on picking the in-form overseas players who have done pretty well in the ICC Men’s Twenty20 World Cup 2022 tournament in Australia.

Meanwhile, Zimbabwean cricketer, Sikandar Raza has set his price at INR 50 lakhs at the IPL 2023 auction and the franchises will surely put some effort to purchase the batsman’s services for the next season.

He can serve as a utility player for the team, given his searing potential. He was one of the top performers in the recently-concluded ICC T20 World Cup in Australia where he aggregated 219 runs in eight innings.

It is also worth mentioning here that he has smashed as many as eleven sixes in the competition, more than any other batsman in the showpiece event. Meanwhile, the IPL teams must have surely monitored the all-rounder.

Raza has played 66 games in Twenty20 Internationals wherein he scored 1259 runs at an average of 21. Overall, he has slammed as many as six half-centuries to his name.
