00:00Deepraj, you are a T20 World Cup ambassador. Lots of good memories of the T20 format. Why did you love T20 World Cup?
00:10Because I had six sixes in that tournament. No, it's just, it's a lot of fun. My fond memories of the T20 World Cup, the first one in 2007.
00:22I think it was a great tournament for all the teams, the fans around the world, people trying to understand what T20 is all about.
00:33We didn't have a clue as a team. I think we really enjoyed the tournament and just the camaraderie of the young players
00:41and just going and expressing yourself, not knowing what T20 is all about and just winning that moment. It was beautiful.
00:49Yeah, looking forward to that, I think the Caribbean is a great place to play cricket. And we've had some great memories in West Indies
01:01because the crowd really wants to come and watch good cricket. And from there you go to USA, cricket is expanding over there.
01:09As you see different leagues coming up and people in America can also watch cricket. New stadiums coming up
01:16and a lot of excitement. Cricket is going global and it's good that a lot of different kinds of people, different cultures are going to come and watch the cricket.
01:30Yeah, it's great for cricket. I think India, Pakistan were the great rivalries back in the days, back in the history.
01:38And I think the whole world is looking forward to that game and obviously myself as well.
01:43And it's a new stadium, it's a new place, new crowd and hopefully it's a cracker of a game.
