I Never Thought That I Can Be A Part Of IPL: Nitish Rana:
For Mumbai Indians, Rana made his IPL debut in 2016. It was the following year that the gunman started to have more opportunities. He was immediately hit in the cash-rich league because of his power and capability to adjust the IPL ‘s conditions.
In 2018 he was purchased for a big amount by Kolkata Knight Riders. He has grown his game from strength to strength since he entered the franchise. It also opened doors for him to represent India A. He is also a strong domestic performer for Delhi.
Rana addressed his early exposures to the IPL and admitted that during the first years of the league, she would go to watch Delhi’s Daredevils games( now it is called Delhi Capitals). He also recalled the time Delhi played along with Virender Sehwag, Gautam Gambhir, and AB de Villiers.
“I never believed I could be an IPL member. I used to watch matches for 4 or 5 seasons because I liked Akshay Kumar, and he was back then with Delhi Daredevils. I liked AB de Villiers, and at that time, Gautam Gambhir was in Delhi. There was also Virender Sehwag. I figured if they didn’t play, then they didn’t see anything, “added Rana.
