Former India batsman Wasim Jaffer feels that Lucknow Super Giants have overpaid West Indies keeper-batter Nicholas Pooran.
Pooran was in the auction pool after Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) let him go after just one season. Pooran was sold to LSG for a whopping amount of R16 crore in the auction.
"They've got good players, like Daniel Sams and Romario Shephard. Both were good buys, even though there's a question mark about them delivering in the IPL. Nicholas Pooran again falls in that category even though he's a quality player, but I think he's very overpriced," Wasim Jaffer told ESPNcricinfo.
The West Indies middle-order batter has scored 912 runs in 44 IPL innings at a strike rate of 151.24. He managed just 306 runs in 13 innings for SRH in IPL 2022.
