IPL 13: Looking Forward To Have A Tough Match Against Kings XI Punjab Says Jos Buttler
Mumbai: Rajasthan Royals wicket-keeper batsman Jos Buttler has said that he looks forward to a really tough match against KL Rahul-led Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) in the Indian Premier League (IPL).
He said, “Great to win on the board, the team performed brilliantly in the first game. It was a brilliant batting performance and a great performance in difficult bowling conditions. I am really excited to play my first game, it was great to be back in training with the boys, there is a great vibe around the team so I am really keen to take the field. The atmosphere and energy around the squad are fantastic, obviously very confident after the first game.”
“The training has been very energetic, the people are living and enjoying each other’s company. So there is a good atmosphere all around, a really tough match is expected against Kings XI. Obviously a fantastic team, KL Rahul was in exceptional form the other night against RCB, so he will be a key wicket as always and I think we’ll see another potentially high-scoring game at Sharjah with small boundaries and the dew factor coming in. Can’t wait to get back out there,” he added.
