Pakistan skipper Babar Azam has been the team’s most prolific player in recent times. His performance across the formats for the Men in Green has gained appreciation from all across the world. However, due to political differences between India and Pakistan, Babar has never been a part of the Indian T20 League. He would have dominated the competition as well if he had participated. In this article, we will have a look at the teams that would have loved to sign Babar Azam in the Indian T20 League 2023 auction.
#1 Hyderabad
The Hyderabad team entered the December 23 auction with the largest remaining purse value. As predicted, they targeted some well-known individuals and gave it their all. However, they could only get their hands on a few big names.
They could have easily targeted and acquired the Pakistani captain for the upcoming season had he been up for bid. With Kane Williamson no longer being a contender, Babar would have made a fantastic captain for The Orange Army.
