Former chennai super kings

Former Chennai Super Kings: Former Chennai Super Kings (CSK) spinner Shadab Jakati feels the ongoing Indian Veteran Premier League (IVPL) has the same level of intensity as of IPL. Jakati was part of the IPL 2010 winning CSK squad.

Playing for the Chhattisgarh Warriors in the IVPL, Jakati expressed his delight at being part of the league and relishing the experience it offers.

"It's been great. It's a great platform for players like us. We get to catch up with our old colleagues, with players with whom we used to play before and it's a nice intensity, as good as IPL. It has most of the qualified foreign and Indian players. It's a great tournament for us to go out there and express ourselves and enjoy," Jakati said.
