Young Indian fast bowler Chetan Sakariya wants to learn a lot from Australian veteran pacer Mitchell Starc while playing for Kolkata Knight Riders in IPL 2024. The left-arm pacer was selected by KKR at a base price of ₹50 million in the IPL 2024 auction and will play for the two-time champions under coach Gautam Gambhir.
Chetan Sakariya was signed for Rs 4.2 crore in the IPL 2022 mega auction, but he failed to make an impact on the team in the short format of matches. The left-arm pacer is capable of swinging new balls and has a variety of slower ball variations, but his medium pace has struggled to become a consistent all-phase bowler and is expected to improve with KKR. means you are keen to develop your skills.
In an interview with Sportskeeda, Chetan Sakariya said it was a great opportunity to share a dressing room with multiple World Cup winner Mitchell Starc and he wanted to do as much as he could. The Australian legend talks about his work ethic and wicket-taking in the game.
“It’s a great opportunity to share the dressing room with a wicket-taker like Mitchell Starc, who did a great job representing Australia and picked up a lot of wickets at the World Cup.” I’m looking forward to it. “To learn as much as possible from him about his thought process and ask him how he picked so many wickets,” Chetan Sakariya said.
Mitchell Starc became the most expensive player in IPL auction history. He broke Cummins’ record earlier in the day when Sunrisers Hyderabad paid Rs 2.05 crore for the World Cup winning captain. The left-arm speedster has only played 2 seasons in the tournament, but in the 2024 season he will be joining Kolkata Knights as he hopes to do well for the Riders.
I Have The Experience Of Playing At The Eden Gardens – Chetan Sakariya
Chetan Sakariya is confident of being able to adapt to any situation that may arise during IPL 2024, and is confident that he will be able to adapt to any situation that may arise during IPL 2024 and will do whatever it takes to excel regardless of the difficulties the pitch poses for victory. I believe I have the skills. Kolkata Knight Riders play their home games at Eden Gardens.
“It’s a ground where as a batsman you get the value of your shot and as a bowler you get rewarded if you hit the right area and length.” So it’s a level playing field overall. I have played at Eden Gardens. At that time, it was a batting paradise and a green pitch. So, I think I am ready for the challenge,” Chetan Sakariya added.
The surface of KKR’s home stadium, Eden Gardens, has seen a number of features recently. From high-scoring games in the 2023 IPL season to great support for bowlers during the 2023 World Cup, the surface has proven to be unpredictable. And Sakariya will be looking forward to a breakthrough season with his KKR in the 2024 IPL season.
