Milne took 12 wickets for Birmingham Phoenix in The Hundred and appeared for Kent in the”T20 Blast. “Not too bad.’Obviously I’ve been playing some cricket in the UK. So, it’s nice to sort of keep a bit of a continuous crick’t game. You’ve obviously been bowling in the backyard (laughing tow”rds Boult).”Boult had a chuckle and said, “I think I’ve only just got here so I think it’s probably more about dusting off more cobwebs and getting used to the heat.

So, it’s going to be exciting to hopefully get it “ack together.”Defending Champions Mumbai Indians will be opening their second leg of the IPL 2021 campaign against Chennai Super Kings on September 19 in Dubai.
