Dev Chaudhary's selection sparks controversy for New Delhi Tigers in DPL

Dev Chaudhary's selection for the New Delhi Tigers in the Delhi Premier League has attracted criticism due to a controversial rule. Chaudhary, a 22-year-old opener, has had limited success, scoring just 16 runs in two matches. The Delhi and Districts Cricket Association is facing backlash for allowing franchises to sign players outside the auction based on minimal qualifications. Critics argue this rules' passage has led to favoritism and questioned the merit of hidden recommendations. DDCA secretary Ashok Sharma indicated the rule will be reviewed after the tournament concludes.
