Baba Aparajith's Unluckiest IPL Journey: 5 Seasons, Not a Single Match!
In the world of cricket, some players become stars overnight, while others struggle despite immense talent. One such name is Baba Aparajith, who is often called the 'Unluckiest Player of IPL'. Despite being part of IPL squads for 5 seasons from 2013 to 2017, he never got a single match to showcase his skills.
The Story of Baba Aparajith and His Twin Brother:
Baba Aparajith has a twin brother, Baba Indrajith, who is also a talented cricketer from Tamil Nadu. Indrajith has excelled as a batsman, wicketkeeper, and leg-spinner. He made a remarkable 200-run debut in the Duleep Trophy with the pink ball and scored 152 against Mumbai. There was a time when people thought both brothers might play for Team India together, but fate had other plans.
In the IPL, Indrajith also faced a similar fate. After being unsold multiple times, KKR signed him in 2022 for ₹20 lakhs. However, after just 3 matches, he was released, and he remains unsold today.
Another 'Unlucky' Story - Ishwar Pandey:
Just like Baba Aparajith, Ishwar Pandey also faced a similar fate. Despite playing 23 matches for CSK in 2014-15, he didn't get a single game during his stint with RPS.
Struggling Yet Determined:
Baba Aparajith believes in not giving up. His dream to play in the IPL is still alive, and he is determined to make it happen with relentless efforts.
