In an interview posted by the official Instagram account of Mumbai Indians, Chris Lynn was all praises about skipper Rohit Sharma. “Being able to play the IPL for any team is a privilege and if you go to the best one then it is really special,” he said. “Rohit is a world-class player, what he’s contributed to Mumbai is something really, really special and Quinny ( Quinton de Kock ) has been incredible with the gloves, and the abt in hand” he added.
The Australian cricketer played for the Kolkata Knight Riders and has proved to be a very explosive batsman. He was part of the T10 league that took place in Abu Dhabi and feels that the conditions will be similar to when he played then. “ The history speaks for itself, their record speaks for itself, the players speak for themselves. How professional the franchise is something that I really look forward to. This is a new challenge now and I am really excited to contribute to a couple of wins” Chris added.
