Sandeep Sharma joins Rajasthan Royals camp in Jaipur ahead of IPL 2023

Swing bowler Sandeep Sharma was recently spotted at the Rajasthan Royals (RR) camp in Jaipur ahead of IPL 2023. After representing Punjab Kings the previous season, Sandeep went unsold at the IPL 2023 mini-auction in December.

Multiple franchises like Mumbai Indians and Rajasthan Royals were reportedly interested in signing him as a replacement for the upcoming season for the injured Jasprit Bumrah and Prasidh Krishna.

The latest developments indicate that Rajasthan have edged other teams and procured his services as a replacement for lanky pacer Prasidh Krishna, who is out for the season due to a long-term injury issue.
