This was a massive jump from his initial base price of Rs. 20 lakh.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The bidding war for Rizvi was intense, involving CSK, Gujarat Titans, and Delhi Capitals before CSK secured him with the final bid.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>This staggering price tag reflects franchisor\u2019s belief in his potential as a hard-hitting batsman, showcased by his impressive performances in domestic tournaments.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Sameer Rizvi is an Indian cricketer. He represented Uttar Pradesh in several domestic tournaments and Kanpur Superstars in the UP T20 League. In 2023, he went viral after Chennai Super Kings (CSK) acquired him in the IPL auction for the 2024 edition.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>After Sameer was born in Loiya village of Meerut, his family moved to the Lal Kurti area of Meerut. Sameer used to visit stadiums to watch the matches of his maternal uncle, Tankeeb Akhtar, which inspired him to play cricket. Tankeeb later trained Sameer.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Although his father did not support Sameer initially, he later supported Sameer\u2019s decision to play cricket. Before Sameer made his Ranji debut, his father suffered a brain haemorrhage.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In 2014, he started playing for Uttar Pradesh Under-14 and went on to play for Under-16 and Under-19 teams. He also played in local and corporate cricket tournaments. In the 2021 Guts N Glory Corporate League, he scored 126 runs in 48 deliveries.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In the 2019-20 domestic season, he made his debut for Uttar Pradesh and went on to play in several tournaments.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In 2019, Sameer Rizvi played for India Under-19 in an international series.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Before the IPL Auction for the 2024 season, Sameer wanted to give trials for IPL; however, he was named as the captain of the Uttar Pradesh Under-23 tournament for the BCCI\u2019s Under-23 one-day tournament. His coach, Sunil Joshi, explained to Sameer that he could earn a name by playing well in the tournament instead of just giving the trials. Sameer later hit 454 runs in 7 matches of the Under-23 tournament.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In the inaugural season of the UP T20 League in 2023, he emerged as the highest runscorer for Kanpur Superstars. In 10 matches, he scored 455 runs at an average of 50.56 and a strike rate of 188.8. He earned a reputation as a pinch hitter by hitting the maximum number of sixes (35) in the tournament. He made the highest individual score (122 runs) and fastest century of the tournament.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sameer Rizvi is an Indian cricketer born on December 6, 2003, in Meerut, Uttar Pradesh.
