The feat that Urvil Patel did on Wednesday, which has never happened in the T20 history of the Indian team till now. He scored a century on only 28 balls in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Tournament. Earlier this record was in the name of Rishabh Pant, who had scored the fastest century in the same tournament in the year 2018. He did this feat on 32 balls. Now Urvil Patel has become the new record holder. Say that the world record was not broken. The record of scoring the fastest century in T20 is in the name of Sahil Chauhan. He has scored a century in 27 balls.
No buyer found in IPL auction
The special thing is that before this, Urvil Patel had also given his name for the auction of IPL, but he did not find any buyer and it went unsold. But now just two days after the auction, Urvil has achieved a new feat. But now the question is whether Urvil will not be able to play the next season of IPL or is there some way.
Urvil can enter IPL as replacement
So the answer to this question is that Urvil can play IPL. IPL is still about four months away. Generally you must have seen that some of the players who are bought in the IPL auction get injured before the start of IPL or withdraw their names due to some other reason. Talking about last year itself, Phil Salt was not sold in the auction for IPL 2024. When the time came for the IPL to start, Jason Roy withdrew his name and Phil Salt suddenly entered the KKR team. Which had gone unsold earlier. He plays the entire season for his team and plays a big role in making the team champion.
These players also came as replacement
This is just an example. If we look at it in the same way, Delhi Capitals had included Jack Fraser McGurk in the team just before the IPL as a replacement for Lungi Egidi. He became famous by playing IPL. Apart from this, Shamar Joseph was included in LSG in place of Mark Wood, he also came to play as a replacement for his team. We see many such cases in every year’s IPL. That means there is a possibility of an unsold player playing in IPL.
Has been included in the squad of Gujarat Titans
Now Urvil Patel has come on the radar of IPL teams. He has done such a feat. Before this, he has also been included in the squad of Gujarat Titans. The special thing is that Urvil Patel is a wicket keeper and top order batsman, who is in great demand in IPL. In such a situation, if a player withdraws his name just before the IPL, then the team can include Urvil Patel in its squad. But he will get his base price only i.e. Rs 30 lakh. Apart from this, Urvil has no other way to enter IPL.
