Afridi wants to play for Kolkata Knight Riders or Rajasthan Royals in IPL | Pakistan's Twenty20 captain Shahid Afridi wants to play for Shah Rukh Khan's Kolkata Knight Riders or Shilpa Shetty's Rajasthan Royals in the next edition
of the Indian Premier League. "There are a number of franchises that would interest
me in the next season of IPL and lets wait and see what happens at the all important
auction, but my preferred destinations would be either The Rajasthan Royals or
the Kolkatta Knight Riders," Afridi said. Afridi who boasts a strike rate of over
146 in Twenty20 internationals is currently taking part in the Twenty20 Big Bash
for South Australia and has lit up the tournament with 2 Man of the Match
performances
in both his outings, according to PakPassion.net. Afridi was also a key member
of the Pakistan squad that lifted the Twenty/20 World Cup tournament last year
in England . "The Big Bash is going live to India so it's a great opportunity
for those players in the IPL player list to show potential bidders what they can
do for their teams," Afridi said. Afridi feels that his time in Australia will
be beneficial to Pakistan during the forthcoming one-day series and Twenty20.
"The Big Bash is an important tournament obviously for South Australia and myself
but also it can be beneficial for Pakistan . I'm really focussed on helping South
Australia qualify for the Champions League. "I also feel that getting used to
conditions out here at the various venues will put me in a good position for the
forthcoming five match one day series for Pakistan and the Twenty20 match at the
MCG," Afridi added. |
