Sreesanth Ready To Play Cricket Anywhere In The World
By: Tupaki Desk | 15 Sep 2020 12:00 PM GMT
Indian cricketer Sreesanth is all set to play Cricket after his seven-year ban ended recently. The BCCI had banned Sreesanth for life in August 2013 for his involvement in the spot-fixing in IPL 2013. In 2015, a special court in Delhi freed him of all charges.
In 2018, the Kerala High Court restored the ban. Then he moved the Supreme Court against the order. In March 2019, the top court upheld his guilt but asked the BCCI to reduce his quantum of punishment. The cricket board then reduced his life ban to seven years which came to an end on September 12 this month.
After completion of the ban, S. Sreesanth said, "call me and I will come and play cricket anywhere".
He said he is speaking to agents in Australia, New Zealand and Sri Lanka as he wants to play cricket at the club levels in these countries. His aim is to represent India in the 2023 World Cup. Another wish is that he wants to play in a match at the Lord's when the MCC plays the Rest of the World.
Sreesanth has played 27 Tests, 53 ODIs and 10 T20Is in which he has taken 87, 75 and 7 wickets respectively. He was part of the 2007 World T20 and 2011 World Cup-winning Indian teams.
