Because of BCCI rules, active Indian cricketers are not eligible to take part in any overseas league. As Rahane is no longer an active national team cricketer, he is free to join where he finds opportunities ahead in his career.
Morris' suggestion to the SA20 teams came after Ajinkya Rahane's deal with the European T20 Premier League (ETPL) team Amsterdam Flames. Only a few days after announcing his retirement, the Indian batter confirmed himself to play in the inaugural season of ETPL, which will mark a fresh chapter of his cricketing career.
Why does Chris Morris ask SA20 franchises to sign Ajinkya Rahane?
"He is world-class, and he is a world-class human being. When you've got someone like that, I think he would be a great addition. Like the impact Dinesh Karthik had when he joined Paarl Royals (Season 3), Jinks is very much the same person that he was when he captained in the IPL. He has played for India for so many years. That experience is really crucial. Just the way he plays. If he comes, it would be a great addition," Chris Morris said in an interaction facilitated by SA20 ahead of the Season 5 Auction.
Ajinkya Rahane possesses a decent T20 track record
In the previous season of the Indian Premier League, the top-order batter scored 335 runs in 14 matches and as many innings for a batting average of 25.76 and an average strike rate of 135.08, including a couple of half-centuries.
During his Twenty20 career, the batter, who is mostly known for his technical batting abilities and skills, has secured a pair of centuries and 56 half-centuries. Through the European T20 Premier League, he will get the opportunity to improve his tally again.
