IPL 2021: Really Miss Those Guys, Says Kumar Sangakkara On Stokes, Archer, Buttler Pull-Outs

By IANS News September 15, 2021 • 21:44 PM View: 2022

England cricketers Ben Stokes, Jofra Archer and Jos Buttler will be missing in action for the Rajasthan Royals in the second phase of IPL 2021. The franchise has already named replacements but how the new signings would turn out, in UAE conditions, will be interesting to see.

Rajasthan Royals' director of cricket Kumar Sangakkara has also admitted that the team will miss the services of the trio. Speaking to IANS, Sangakkara said, "Well, the make-up of the squad has been different again because we've had a few pull outs from our players for various reasons – all understandable – you're looking players for the long term, as individuals, their lives, not just for one season of IPL."
