News Summary:

BCCI Vice-President Rajeev Shukla on Friday, March 13, downplayed the acquisition of Pakistan spinner Abrar Ahmed by Sunrisers Leeds during The Hundred auction, asserting that the matter was not within the BCCI’s jurisdiction. This statement followed significant attention when Sunrisers Leeds, a franchise owned by the Sun Group (which also operates Sunrisers Hyderabad in the IPL), signed Abrar Ahmed for 190,000 pounds (approximately Rs 2.34 crore) on Thursday, March 12, after a bidding battle with Trent Rockets. The signing drew scrutiny as Indian owners have generally avoided investing in Pakistani talent in recent years, prompting the BCCI to distance itself through Shukla. Previously, former India captain and head coach Rahul Dravid was scheduled to receive the Col CK Nayudu Lifetime Achievement Award at the annual BCCI Naman Awards ceremony in Delhi on Sunday, March 15.
