Sakib was bought by SRH for Rs. 30 lakh at the IPL auction. He was first signed by Kolkata Knight Riders in the auction ahead of the IPL 2024 season, but did not get the opportunity to play that season.
The 21-year-old right arm pacer made his T20 debut for Bihar in the 2022-23 Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy. At the age of just 17, Sakib registered figures of four for 20 runs in just his second game.
