"He Seems Like A.": Pat Cummins On Sharing Dressing Room With Shreyas Iyer Ahead Of IPL 2022

The Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) barely missed out to Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the last of last season's Indian Premier League (IPL). KKR sprinkled the money during the IPL super sale last month to collect a solid crew. India player Shreyas Iyer, who was roped in by the double cross bosses for Rs 12.25 crore, was likewise selected commander by KKR in front of the new season that starts in under seven days' time.

Australia Test chief Pat Cummins, who was delivered by KKR in front of the super closeout, was repurchased by the establishment for Rs 7.25 crore at the IPL sell off.

Cummins, who is preparing for the third and last Test against Pakistan at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore, shared the changing area with Shreyas during IPL 2017 for Delhi Capitals (then, at that point, Daredevils).

"Shreyas, I played with (him) at Delhi (Daredevils), we got on all around well. He appears to be an exceptionally quiet fellow and appears to be in structure right now. I'm so eager to go around there, I have a few dear companions I will play close by, can hardly wait," Cummins said during a pre-match question and answer session in Lahore.

Further talking on KKR's general business at the closeout, Cummins said that the establishment settled on the ideal choice by holding the center gathering of players and care staff.

"Truly invigorated. It's been incredible that the vast majority of the crew has had the option to held together. In this way, the majority of the players and staff know all around well," he added.

KKR will play their first game against CSK in the competition opener on Saturday, March 26.
