The forthcoming auction of the Indian Premier League is set to be the biggest one since the inaugural one in 2008. With contracts of most of the players already expired, the upcoming auction will see almost all the players available. As of now, there has been no official word from the IPL governing council on player retention but one can say that the franchises are gearing up for the worst.
All the franchises must have started thinking about whom to buy in the next auction and even if they have not, Kolkata Knight Riders owner Shah Rukh Khan has definitely zeroed in on one bowler. Well, the Bollywood superstar wants his skipper Gautam Gambhir‘s three-year old daughter Aazeen to bowl for the franchise.
Khan expressed his wish after Gambhir posted a cute video on Twitter, showing his daughter bowling at him when he paid a visit to her school.
“High pressure job facing my daughter Aazeen’s bowling at her school. Hell, even she knows d line has to be outside d off stump vs papa!!,” Gambhir wrote along with the video.
