IPL Auction 2024: PBKS Accidentally Buy Uncapped Shashank Singh; Auctioneer Denies Reversal (ld)
The Punjab Kings: The Punjab Kings (PBKS) made a significant blunder during the Indian Premier League 2024 auction by purchasing the 'wrong player'. By the time they realised the mistake the bid had already been completed and the auctioneer denied the reversal.
The focal point of this chaos was the uncapped Indian player, Shashank Singh, whom PBKS mistakenly bought at a base price of Rs 20 lakhs after the team seemingly mixed up the name of the player during the 2024 IPL auction held in Dubai on Tuesday.
During the accelerated round, the auctioneer Mallika Sagar announced and called out the name of 32-year-old Shashank, who represents Chhattisgarh in domestic cricket. Shashank has played 55 T20 games, amassing 724 runs at a strike rate of 135.83 while taking 15 wickets.
