00:00Coming in midway, how do you see yourself in a very certain type of league games, potential games to have?
00:16Yeah, I think it's a pretty exciting opportunity to be able to come over here in such good league.
00:22Just having the experience, even just in trainings and stuff, bowling to world class players is going to be obviously big for my game.
00:29And, you know, if I'm lucky enough to get a chance to play out there, I'd obviously like to take that with both hands.
00:35How do you see these predictions here? Are they really different from where you're from back home?
00:42Or are you on a map of experience?
00:46Yeah, obviously very different back home. I think we get probably greener, bouncier, what gets back home.
00:54Played a few times, played a couple of test games here.
00:57It's obviously a tough test and can be tough as a ball, but I think that's also very exciting to experience different conditions
01:03and come over here and see how my game stacks up against some of the best in the world.
01:09First time, there's a break in IPL, due to some circumstances, but now I can start it again.
01:17Do you think there is any difference or it makes any effect to the performance of a team more around here?
01:23I can only speak for myself and I wasn't here anyway, so I know the boys are happy with the IPL starting up again
01:31and we're looking forward to the next three games where hopefully we can put some wins on the board.
01:36When you join the team back, there is a must-win game, all three games you have to win for semi-finals.
01:43What is the opportunity for that energy?
01:47Yeah, it's obviously, you know, there's a little bit that we can do in our own hands
01:52and that is that we have to win the next three games.
01:54So, yeah, we just got to take that upon ourselves, put out some good performances
01:58and then if we happen to sneak into semis, that's obviously great result.
02:02At any point, did you have any apprehension of coming to India?
02:12Did I have any apprehensions?
02:15Nah, I think, you know, obviously the competition is starting up again
02:18and we're really excited for that and, you know, we trust the security that's being put in place.
