By Saurabh Sharma April 10, 2019 • 23:26 PM View: 1046

New Delhi, April 10 (CRICKETNMORE) Kings XI Punjab pacer Hardus Viljoen cannot play for South Africa as had accepted the Kolpak deal, but he feels playing in the Indian Premier League (IPL) comes closest to fulfilling his dream of playing in the coveted World Cup.

The Kolpak deal allows citizens of around 100 nations to play cricket in any EU nation without being considered an overseas player. Hardus had donned the national jersey once in a Test against England and is now a freelance cricketer. Hardus believes IPL is better than many other T20 leagues in the world.
