Would love to play in the TNCA league, says S Sreesanth
Kerala pacer S Sreesanth revealed that he was looking forward to playing in the Tamil Nadu Cricket Association league as he eyed a return to cricket after seven long years. S Sreesanth had spent his early days in Chennai and he revealed that he had a fair idea of the conditions and the way the pitch at Chepauk behaved.
“I have fond memories of Chennai. I learnt the ropes of fast bowling from Dennis Lillee and TA Sekar. I have great memories of playing at MA Chidambaram Stadium. The wickets, conditions and quality of batsmen make it challenging for bowlers. I would love to play in the TNCA leagu. I am bowling with passion and slowly getting back my rhythm. I am enjoying my bowling and the process that a first-class cricketer has to undergo to perform at the Ranji level,” Sreesanth told New Indian Express.
