JAGGI INDUCTED IN IPL POOL

Jharkhand right-hander Ishank Jaggi has been included in the auction pool as one of the late entrants after a string of good performances in the final leg of the Syed Mushtaq Ali Twenty20 Trophy.

Jaggi was not kept in pruned list of 351 players that the Indian board announced after consulta- tion with the IPL franchises.

But scores of 51 no off 37 balls vs Central Zone, 90 off 51 balls against South Zone and 58 off 34 balls against West Zone forced the franchises to do a rethink and include him in the pool. His base price is ~10 lakh.

Some of the other late entrants are former India under-19 pacer Monu Kumar, Chaitanya Bishnoi, Kshitij Sharma to name a few.
