Players from Pakistan have lost the right to play in the IPL

“I played Kent County cricket in 2008. Scouts from KKR came to me from India – they said that Khan wanted me to play for them. They gave me a business card and took my contacts. A few weeks later, a letter came to my email in which they complained that I did not give them an answer. Then Shahrukh personally called me and offered me a three-year contract,” Arafat said.

But a terrorist attack occurred in Mumbai some time after this story. Players from Pakistan lost the right to play in the IPL after that.
