IPL 2025: KKR Recruit Rahmanullah Gurbaz Excited To Play On Favourite Pitches At Eden
Indian Premier League: Afghanistan's rags-to-riches cricketer Rahmanullah Gurbaz, who at one time played a U19 match against India with a borrowed bat, is looking forward excitedly to playing in the Indian Premier League (2025) as a player bought in the auction for Rs 2 crore. But more than the big price tag, Gurbaz is happy as he will once again be playing on his favourite pitches at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata.
Picked by the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) for the second season in succession, Gurbaz is hoping to follow up after helping the franchise secure their third IPL trophy last year at the final in May 2024.
"I am really excited to go out there and play good cricket. Coincidentally, Eden Gardens is one of my favourite pitches to play on and I score well there usually, so I am happy and can’t wait to perform in Kolkata," Gurbaz told Telecom Asia Sport in an exclusive interview during the Abu Dhabi T10 that ended over the weekend.
