Sharma and Buchake are released by Northants

The pair’s contracts expire in October, and neither player have been offered a new deal.

Both players are graduates from the club’s Talent Pathway Programme, and have played multiple times for the second across the last few years, as well as making first team appearances.

Sharma first featured for the County against Gloucestershire in the Rothesay Championship Division Two last season, and went on to play 13 matches across all formats.

The majority of those came in the One Day Cup where the 20-year-old scored 247 runs and two half-centuries across 2025 and 2026.

The 20-year-old’s most recent start saw him hit 61 against Lancashire in the Metro Bank One Day Cup in August.

Buchake’s only first team appearance came in the final game of the 2025 County Championship against Leicestershire in which he scored a total of 36 runs across the two innings.

Also aged 20, he last played for the club in the second team’s clash with Middesex IIs earlier this month.

Northamptonshire chief executive Ray Payne said: “It’s never nice seeing people leave, but we’re very thankful to Aadi and Arush for all of their hard work and commitment during their time at the club.

“We’re sure that they’ll excel at whatever comes next, and everyone wishes them the very best of luck moving forward.”
