Would like to play for IPL Kochi team: Sreesanth

Thiruvananthapuram:

Kerala speedster S Sreesanth on Sunday said he would like to play for the Kochi IPL team though he was not sure if he would be able to find a place in the team as players would be picked through auction.

"I would like to play for Kochi team. However, I cannot say if I will be part of the team or not as the process is through auction," he said while welcoming the BCCI's decision to allow the team to participate in the fourth edition of IPL.

"Playing for a home team anyway will give me much joy than anything else," Sreesanth said.

He said the BCCI's decision would not only promote sports in Kerala, but also boost tourism.
