‘Have registered for it. It will be an exciting opportunity’, he says.
Australian all-rounder Cameron Green confirmed on Monday, November 28, 2022 that he has registered for the upcoming Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 auctions.
The 23-year-old youngster is expected to attract huge interest from the franchises during the IPL players auction, scheduled to be held in Kochi on December 23.
Many fans expect teams to go after Green and place high bids for him because of his all-round abilities and the fact that the 23-year-old has plenty of cricket to offer at the highest level. "I have registered for it. It will be an exciting opportunity," Green was quoted as saying by cricket.com.au on their 'Unplayable' podcast.
"Speaking to a lot of guys, especially in the WA (Western Australia) set up about their experiences in the IPL, they speak so highly of it. They speak about the quality coaches that you are around, the quality players that you are around. They are all the best in the world at their craft."
"It is a craft that I have not been exposed to too much. I am so open to wanting to learn as much as I can and that is probably one of the best environments to learn in," Green said.
But a highly likely dive into the most cash-rich cricket league on the planet has not put an end to his Test ambitions and hunger as his father Gary has been helping his son practice via a bowling machine ahead of the first Test against West Indies, which will start from November 30.
"I had a few sessions on the bowling machine basically trying to change my contact point," Green said. "In T20 cricket, you are meeting the ball so far in front of you, so you get that full swing."
