Finally, Pune Warriors have sign an agreement with the emerging star from Jammu And Kashmir, Parvez Rasool for the upcoming Pepsi Indian Premier League 6. The cricketer from J&K is given a total of Rs 20 Lakhs to play for Pune Warriors for 2 years. He was selected by the team selectors of Pune on 14th February 2013 before Parvez Rasool Played in India ‘A’ against Australian Team. Rasool was approached by few other franchises but he accept the proposal of Pune. Here is what Pravez Rasool had to say :
“A few franchises approached me but it was Pune who approached me first. So, it was an ethical decision to join them as they had shown interest much before the Australia match happened.”
Kings XI Punjab also approached Parvez Rasool but it was Pune who made the initial call for the Young Talent from Jammu and Kashmir. Pervez Rasool who is a good all-rounder and since we can have only four foreigners, his batting and off-break bowling makes him a good choice in the playing XI in Pune Warriors.
Rasool said:
“It is a dream come true for me that I will be interacting with Michael Clarke. Also having Yuvi Paaji (Yuvraj Singh) will be a bonus. I have just started my journey in top-flight cricket and this stint with Pune will only help me grow.
I hope that I will be able soak in all the information that I can get from our coach Allan Donald.“
