RajasthanRoyal pacer Chetan Sakariya's father succumbs to covid19.
“I can give better treatment to my father because of the money I earned from IPL.” These lines from a chetan Sakariya, who lost his younger brother in january, have benumbed everyone today as his father has lost his battle against COVID-19... 🙁 Sakariya spends the majority of his morning after returning from IPL at the hospital.
Sakariya, who was going through a difficult time at the time, saw it as a watershed moment. His brother had committed suicide, and his father's health had deteriorated. He was bread earner for his family's well-being, and the IPL salary certainly brightened his day. The left-arm seamer was eligible for selection for a base price of Rs 20 lakh, but after a bidding war between RCB and RR, the latter franchise was able to obtain his services for Rs 1.2 crore.
