Karn Sharma Biography

Hailing from Meerut, Karn Sharma made to the headlines when he was auctioned for a whopping INR 3.75 crores by SRH in IPL 2014 auction. It was the second-highest amount for any domestic player. He had earlier taken 11 wickets from 13 games for the same team in IPL 2013.

However, Karn’s best performance came in 2012-13 when he won the BCCI award for Best Under-25 cricketer with 21 wickets from 3 Ranji matches.

Karn was picked for India’s tour of England following another impressive season with SRH and made his debut against Sri Lanka in November 2014. He has failed to make the same impact and has always been at the fringes of selection. He has been a regular feature for India A.

His batting has given him the edge over his contemporaries. He also earned a Test cap at Adelaide Oval in 2014-15, but he turned out to be a failure.
