Former India pacer S Sreesanth and all-rounder Stuart Binny have been selected to take part in the second edition of the American Premier League T20 which will be held in Houston from December 19 to 31. Both players have retired from active cricket in India and are now eligible to compete in overseas franchise leagues.
The Moosa Cricket Stadium in Houston, Texas will be the site of the matches which have been sanctioned by the ICC since May of this year. The USA Cricket board has also recruited 40 international cricketers to compete across seven teams: Americans, Indians, Paks, Windees, Bengalees, Aussies and English. Sreesanth and Binny will be part of the Premium Indians team.
The 40-year-old Sreesanth announced his retirement from all forms of domestic cricket in India last year and is excited to be a part of the Premium Indians. He said, "I am honored to be picked by the Premium Indians. I am still very new to the franchisee cricket eco-system outside of India so I'm really looking forward to it. It will be a great experience to play in front of the American crowd in a new territory for the first time."
This news comes shortly after Sreesanth was booked in an alleged cheating case in which he denied any involvement. He has made it clear that he has absolutely no involvement with the case.
