Yup! Sold for Base price, I think it is an excellent pick for Punjab. Great to see a Zimbabwean again in the IPL.

Not even about the price. Its about him going there and putting on some serious performances so that he gets retained.

Great news, he deserves it for the year he has had :D

Let’s hope he uses the experience well and brings it to the Zimbabwe team.

I’m quite surprised after his recent poor franchise from this last month.

But so so happy for him. What a legend

His new coach Trevor Bayliss has just been on and said ‘Sikandar Raza is a bit of an unknown’

Apart from the fact he’s played 66 first class matches, 222 List A and 158 T20’s, was all over the news for the past six months, and has played for numerous franchises even recently? :lol:

‘Unknown’ :lol:

Fellow Zimbo (I’m still claiming him) Sam Curran in the same franchise. For a record amount too!!! Kevin would be bouncing

This.

And yeah, for the year he has had, he had to land a deal. Not that I care a lot about IPL, but always good to see Zimbos getting noticed.

And wow! Sam Curran, the highest paid ever! He can surely make all the money in these leagues and turn out for Zim you know :)

Well, what an idiotic thing to say, really. I'm not sure Raza will get the right opportunities then...

Unfortunately Muzarabani went unsold. Hopefully next year.
