“Thanks so much for all the love and support I’ve received so far. Honestly, it’s a bit of a desire to come true for me. I had a desire to play with MS Dhoni again and win a tournament once before he retires. So it’s a blessing to get an opportunity to play for CSK. Not just that, I get to play with a lot of players I grew up with. Ambati Rayudu, Suresh Raina… I’ve been playing with them since Under-17. So I’m very very happy that I’m a part of CSK. I’ll work hard and play well if I get an opportunity. And I’m looking forward to coming there and entertaining all of you,” he concluded.
