Delhi Capitals buy Mustafizur for Rs 2 crore

The Delhi Capitals bought Bangladeshi bowler Mustafizur Rahman for Rs 2 crore (base price) on Day 1 of the Mega Auction ahead of the 2022 Indian Premier League.

BSS adds: Delhi would be Mustafizur's fourth IPL team in five years after playing in Sunrisers Hyderabad, Mumbai Indians, and Rajasthan Royals.

He started his IPL journey in 2016 when Sunrisers Hyderabad recruited him.

Mustafizur's performance was key in helping Hyderabad become champion in that edition. He was adjudged Emerging Player of the IPL in that year and till now remained the only overseas player to have achieved that feat.

Later in his stint with Hyderabad and Mumbai Indians he couldn't show that killer form. However he regained his sublime touch during his stint with Rajasthan Royals in the last year.
