Kane Richardson excited about playing alongside RCB greats

Australia and Royal Challengers Bangalore pacer Kane Richardson is excited about playing in the Indian Premier League 2020. Richardson says that he is looking forward to sharing the dressing room with Virat Kohli, AB de Villiers, and Dale Steyn. In an interview with ANI, Kane Richardson revealed that he would want to learn consistency from Dale Steyn and also know what makes Virat Kohli tick.

"Huge. These guys (Virat, AB de Villiers) are the absolute legends of the game. Anything I can learn from them will be a bonus, that's for sure. I am really looking forward to playing with Virat, there are few more competitive players in the world. I am really looking forward to seeing what makes him tick," said Richardson. 

Richardson talked about the greatness of Dale Steyn and how is looking forward to picking up some wisdom from him. "There are loads I can learn from Dale. He has been amongst the best at the highest level for so long. His control and ability to swing the ball without losing his pace is really impressive. I look forward to getting in his ear about how he performs so consistently over a long period, in all forms," said Richardson who has played for Royal Challengers Bangalore in the past as well.

The 29-year-old also talked about the importance of having another Aussie, Aaron Finch, in the RCB camp. "Finchey (Finch) is an awesome player and a fantastic leader. I am sure it will help to have two Aussies in the side along with Josh (Joshua Philippe) who is playing his first tournament after a massive summer in the BBL. We are all professionals, I'm sure it won't take long for us to gel as a side,” he concluded.
