Shakib, Fizz's teams at the end of IPL auction
After two intense days of bidding at Bangalore, the auction for the 2018 concluded with huge sums of money being splashed for the services of some of the most coveted stars in modern cricket. Bangladesh duo Shakib Al Hasan and Mustafizur Rahman were snapped up by IPL teams Sunrisers Hyderabad and Mumbai Indians.
Shakib Al Hasan played for Kolkata Knight Riders in the past seven seasons but after only featuring in one match in last year's IPL, the all-rounder was released by the Riders. Shakib will be looking towards a new adventure at a new side led by David Warner, when he features for the IPL outfit Sunrisers Hyderabad.
Mustafizur meanwhile moved from his old side Sunrisers and went to Mumbai Indians. Both of Bangladesh's star players have experience of winning the IPL with their previous teams but as they get ready to embark on a new challenge with their respective sides, it matters who they have as teammates.
