'India Call Up Is The Next Aim', Says Auqib Dar’s Father After Blockbuster IPL Deal
Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy: As Jammu and Kashmir pacer Auqib Dar made headlines after Delhi Capitals bought him for Rs 8.40 crore during the IPL 2026 mini auction, the uncapped pacer's father, Ghulam Nabi Dar, has said that while the IPL contract was a matter of great pride for the family, the only aim now is for his son to get selected in the Indian team.
Starting at a base price of Rs 30 lakh, Auqib sparked an intense bidding war between Delhi Capitals and Rajasthan Royals, with Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Sunrisers Hyderabad later entering the fray. The contest ended with the 29-year-old pacer from Baramulla being snapped up by the Delhi Capitals.
"I can't express my happiness in words… Now the only thing left is to get selected for the Indian team. Every parent wants their child to progress and succeed," Auqib's father told IANS.
