Madhya Pradesh pacer Avesh Khan, who earned a national call-up for the T20 series against New Zealand, on Wednesday said that his dream to represent the country has been fulfilled.
Avesh, who had 24 wickets in the IPL, got the news just after MP’s Syed Mushtaq Ali T20 match vs Kerala on Tuesday.
“Every cricketer has a dream that he plays for his country and he works hard to
turn this dream into a reality. My dream has been fulfilled now,” Avesh, who has 100 first-class wickets, from 27 matches, said.
The 24-year-old said that he had performed well in the last domestic season and also in the Indian Premier League, which helped him to earn the national call-up.
The right-arm speedster credited former cricketers like Amay Khurasiya, Chandrakant Pandit, Devendra Bundela and Abbas Ali for spotting talent in him and then guiding him throughout his career.
