IPL Trade Consent Taken From Curran, Jadeja, Samson?
The Cricbuzz report quoted an unnamed franchise official stating that consent had been obtained from Sam Curran, Ravindra Jadeja, and Sanju Samson, and that the Expression of Interest process has started.
"Consent has been obtained from all three players and the Expression of Interest process has been initiated. All three have signed on the dotted line, but the process will take some time to culminate,"
An Expression of Interest must be recorded and submitted to the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) from the team interested in trading players.
