From IPL to CPL now Sandeep Lamichhane will play in Afghanistan Premier League (APL). A few days ago in the Auction of APL, he was bought by Nangarhar Franchise for $15000. Sandeep Lamichhane is busy this year. He has already played in some top leagues in the world including IPL. This year APL will start from the October 5th, a total of five franchise based teams will battle for the APL title this year. Due to a security risk for players, the league will run in the United Arab Emirates

Some big names from Associate nations like Paras Khadka, Rohan Mustafa and Barbar Hayat were unsold in the APL Auction.

Sandeep has proved his worth playing for the different teams in different leagues. He is among the top five cricketers to play the cricket in maximum countries this year. He is a young and talented player. If Sandeep continues his impressive performance, he will get more success.

Nepal is going to play T20 qualifier from 3rd to 11th October & APL will also start from 5th October and ends on 21 October. I think Sandeep won’t play in APL or he will play some matches after finishing the upcoming tournament with Nepal.

I am happy to see Sandeep was bought in APL auction, hope to see more players from Associate nations in the future.
