IPL aims to rope in Sunil Joshi

Bangalore: Left-arm spinner Sunil Joshi is prominent in the list of players that Bangalore outfit Royal Challengers is aiming to recruit from its local catchment area for the forthcoming Indian Premier League.

“Yes talks are on. I think the IPL is a great concept and it is also a great opportunity for a lot of Karnataka players. Twenty20 is not just about youth, you also need players with experience and that’s where I come in,” Joshi said.

Joshi also believes that skipper Rahul Dravid got the team he wanted. “Rahul knew the kind of players he wanted and he got them. It is all about playing well and winning all the games and the Bangalore team has a good mix. Players like Jacques Kallis are proven performers,” Joshi said.
