IPL teams who could buy the five available Afghanistan cricketers

#4 Gujarat Lions - Mohammad Nabi

Nabi is a useful batsman and a handy bowler, too

Gujarat Lions have a pretty settled top order in Brendon McCullum, Aaron Finch, Dwyane Smith and Suresh Raina. But they lack the firepower down the order with Dinesh Karthik, more of a rotator, and Dwyane Bravo not anymore the batsman he once was.

Mohammad Nabi, the Afghanistan all-rounder could be a perfect fit in the Gujarat Lions line-up. Possessing vast experience, the spinning all-rounder is a handy hitter of the cricket ball and is pretty tidy with his off-spin.

Nabi has 704 runs from 52 T20I matches for Afghanistan and has 56 wickets at an average of 23.30. What might attract Gujarat more is his economy which stands at just 6.96, exceptional by T20 standards. He has played in England, Pakistan and Bangladesh and figured in 3 World T20s for Afghanistan.
