Australian all-rounder Cameron Green, who was signed by Mumbai Indians for the next Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 season, said that he is “pinching” himself and is humbled to join the five-time champion team, which he called the “one of the powerhouses of the tournament.” The five-time champion Mumbai Indians (MI) paid INR 17.5 crore for Australian all-rounder Cameron Green on Friday during the Indian Premier League (IPL) auction being held in Kochi. “I am pinching myself that this has all happened,” Green was quoted as saying by cricket.com.au.

“It is such a weird feeling watching an auction for yourself. I cannot believe how nervous I was and I was shaking like anything when the final call was confirmed. I have always been a huge fan of the IPL and it is going to be so cool to be a part of it.” “The Mumbai Indians are one of the powerhouses of the competition so I feel very humbled to be joining them. I cannot wait to get there next year,” concluded the all-rounder. The talented Australian all-rounder sparked a fierce bidding battle between the Delhi Capitals and Mumbai Indians (DC). Five-time champs prevailed in the end and took home Green.

One of his nation’s most promising emerging prospects is this 23-year-old all-rounder from Western Australia. He would unquestionably be a benefit to any side given his advanced age and all-around skills. He became a star to watch out for after scoring two quickfire fifties in the opener against India in a three-match series this year. He has participated in 21 T20Is, during which time he has amassed 245 runs, including two fifty-scores, and claimed five wickets.
