The 2024 IPL auction was full of surprises. Overseas players were in high demand but uncapped Indian players also stole the show. We saw many uncapped Indian players getting decent money in the 2024 mini-auction. In this article, we will tell you about one such uncapped Indian player, Naman Dhir.
Naman Dhir Cricket Career
Indian uncapped spin allrounder from Ambala Haryana, Naman Dhir was picked by Mumbai Indians in the 2024 IPL auction. He was picked on his base price of 20 lakhs. The 23-year-old spin allrounder will make his IPL debut for one of the most successful IPL franchises, Mumbai Indians.
He is a right-handed batsman who can also bowl right arm off spin. Mumbai picked him because they are lacking a spinner in their squad and they got a decent all-rounder Naman Dhir in the auction. He played only 5 T20 games in his career but he made a very promising start in his domestic career where he made a sensational hundred against Saurashtra in his debut season in the quarter-finals of the tournament.
He represents Punjab in domestic cricket and in his age level, he is doing quite well for his team. Naman has not played enough T20 cricket to get sleeked for a franchise like Mumbai Indians but the scouts of the team must have seen something special in him and that is the reason why he was picked by Mumbai Indians in the IPL 2024 auction. He is now all set to provide his services for the team in IPL 2024.
