Sunrisers Leeds have found themselves at the centre of a storm just hours after their headline signing at The Hundred 2026 auction. The franchise’s official account on X (formerly Twitter) was suspended shortly after the team bought Pakistan mystery spinner Abrar Ahmed during the inaugural men’s auction in London.
Abrar became the first Pakistani cricketer to be picked by an Indian-owned franchise in The Hundred. Sunrisers, owned by the Sun Group, the same conglomerate that runs Sunrisers Hyderabad in the IPL, secured the leg-spinner for £190,000 (around USD 255,000) after beating Trent Rockets in a brief bidding contest. The move immediately triggered strong reactions online, particularly among Indian fans. Many criticised the franchise and its owner Kavya Maran for signing a Pakistani player, arguing that the decision ignored prevailing national sentiment.
