IPL Auction 2020: 5 top players who could go unsold

#2 Mustafizur Rahman

Mustafizur Rahman

After impressing in his debut series against India, Mustafizur Rahman became a regular in the Bangladeshi team. His left-arm pace played a key role in the rise of Bangladesh cricket; he has played 37 T20I matches in his career, scalping 52 wickets at an economy rate of 7.88.

The Satkhira-born player has been a part of the two IPL franchises - Sunrisers Hyderabad and Mumbai Indians. The 24-year-old has featured in 24 IPL games and picked up 24 wickets at an economy rate of 7.51.

Although his numbers are decent, the fast bowler has struggled with injury issues of late. The Bangladesh Cricket Board had instructed him to skip IPL 2019 so as to be fit for the 2019 World Cup.

Also, apart from Royal Challengers Bangalore, none of the franchises desperately need a foreign fast bowler. While many believe Rahman will get a bid in the IPL Auction 2020, it is unlikely that the franchises would show much interest in signing him on Thursday.
