NEW DELHI: Australia’s star allrounder Cameron Green had a memorable experience during his first season with Royal Challengers Bengaluru in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024. The opportunity to bat alongside the legendary Virat Kohli and share the dressing room with him was a highlight for Green.
Green was acquired by the Mumbai Indians for a whopping sum of Rs 17.5 crore during the IPL 2023 Auction.
However, following the conclusion of the player retention deadline for the upcoming IPL 2024 season in November 2023, Green was traded to RCB after spending one season with Mumbai Indians.
During his stint with Mumbai Indians in 2023, Green featured in 16 matches. Subsequently, he represented RCB in 13 games, accumulating 255 runs at an impressive average of 31.88.
Speaking about Virat, Green said: “It’s always pretty special when you look back at these times playing with Virat. He gave 110% every single time he plays, which is the beauty of him.”
“It’s never towards a batter or anything, it’s just pumping himself up, pumping the team up,” he said.
