RCB To Buy Noor Ahmad From Gujarat Titans Ahead Of IPL Auctions 2024?

Royal Challengers Bangalore are one of the most popular teams in the Indian Premier League (IPL) and are never far away from grabbing headlines. Now, with the IPL auctions for the 2024 edition, just around the corner, there is big buzz regarding their team composition for the next season.

RCB have released 11 players ahead of the auctions which includes Sri Lanka's star spinner Wanindu Hasaranga as well. He was the leading wicket taker for RCB in the 2022 season but had a poor outing in the 2023 season, which has led to his ouster. So, with RCB looking for a quality spin option, potentially a wrist spinner again, the name of Noor Ahmad is making big noise. 

He is currently retained by Gujarat Titans (GT), but as things have panned out so far, one cannot rule out another surprising trade. GT already have Rashid khan, a leg spinner in their side along with a quality Indian spinner, R Sai Kishore. So, they might release Noor Ahmad, who is not likely to feature regularly in the playing XI. 

However, Noor Ahmad bowled brilliantly in the last season and picked 16 wickets in 13 matches, so it would be a big call, if they decide to let go Noor Ahmad.

Things are surely heating up and we can expect all franchises to go all in, to make their teams as perfect as possible ahead of the big IPL season.
