Three B’deshi pacers potential candidates for upcoming season

With three Bangladeshi pacers set to face the gavel on December 19, the question of who will represent Bangladesh in the upcoming Indian Premier League (IPL) season hangs in the balance, reports UNB.

Despite the withdrawal of Shakib Al Hasan and Litton Das, who were part of the last IPL, three prominent Bangladeshi pacers - Taskin Ahmed, Mustafizur Rahman, and Shoriful Islam - stand as potential candidates for the upcoming IPL season.

The base prices for these three pacers have been disclosed by the IPL authority. Teams vying for Mustafizur's services will need to allocate a minimum of INR 20 million (2 crores), while Taskin comes with a base price of INR 7.5 million (75 lakhs), and Shoriful's services start at INR 5 million (50 lakhs).

Mustafizur and Shoriful are set to be part of Bangladesh's tour of New Zealand, featuring three ODIs and three T20s. However, Taskin has been grappling with an injury in recent times.
