Kolkata: Fiery Australian opener Chris Lynn, snapped up by Mumbai Indians for his base price of Rs 2 crore at the 2020 IPL auctions on Thursday expressed his happiness through a tweet.
One of the five points that made him happy, read the tweet, was that he won’t have to face Jasprit Bumrah this season. Replying to Lynn’s tweet, Bumrah replied tweeted: “Ha ha, welcome to the team! @lynny50 You’re still going to have to face me in the nets (sic.).”
Lynn last represented Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) for five years and was released by the two-time champions ahead of this year’s auction, a move that former allrounder Yuvraj Singh called a “bad call”. IANS
