5-time IPL champions, Chennai Super Kings, acquired the services of Afghanistan leg-spinner Noor Ahmad for an unprecedented price of INR 10 crore. Due to the lack of quality foreign spinners, Noor grabbed a huge amount of money.
Some moves in this auction have been truly unexpected, and Chennai Super Kings once again lived up to their reputation for making bold, unpredictable decisions. This time, they succeeded in leaving everyone amazed.
CSK, the team known for showing trust in experienced and veteran cricketers, went ahead to get a player like Noor Ahamd for their squad. The young and energetic spin bowler has been a crucial asset for whatever team he has been a part of.
Chennai Super Kings won the bid for the player at INR 5 crore, but Gujarat Titans decided to apply their right-to-match card on the young lad. To beat their RTM, the Chennai-based franchise had to increase their bid to INR 10 crore.
Khaleel Ahmed bought for INR 4.80 crore by Chennai Super Kings
Khaleel Ahmed, who had a dream season in IPL 2024, taking 17 wickets in 14 matches, has been bought by the Chennai Super Kings. The young left-arm fast bowler has been attained by the Chennai-based franchise for INR 4.80 crore.
His aggression and energy on the field, combined with his ability to deliver under pressure, make Khaleel Ahmed a valuable asset to any team. With consistent performances and a drive to improve, he continues to be a promising talent in Indian cricket, capable of making significant contributions at both the domestic and international levels.
The Indian pacer would be looking forward to joining hands with Sri Lankan pacer Matheesha Pathirana, who was retained by the franchise for his exceptional death-bowling skills. Together, they aim to form a formidable pace duo, adding depth and versatility to the team’s bowling attack in the upcoming season.
Apart from him, Chennai Super Kings have bought Ravichandran Ashwin, Devon Conway, Rahul Tripathi, Rachin Ravindra, and Noor Ahmad till now.
