Since then, he didn’t play the IPL. In fact, he enrolled himself at the mega auction for a base price of Rs 75 lakhs. Nonetheless, he failed to attract the bidders in the mega auction in Bengaluru. In the end, he went unsold at the auction.
The Mumbai-born pacer has decided to sign up as a commentator for the ongoing season of the IPL. He was also seen plying his trade a commentator for Mumbai Indians’ matches.
