Sandeep Lamichhane - Nepal's 'Shane Warne' Eagerly Awaits IPL Learning Curve
Nepal leg-spinner Sandeep Lamichhane says his breakthrough Indian Premier League deal will give him the chance to play alongside the cricketing elite and promote the sport back at home.
Lamichhane, 17, became an overnight hero after becoming Nepal's first cricketer to enter the lucrative IPL, with Delhi Daredevils picking him in a mega auction Sunday.
His name was splashed across front pages of national newspapers and thousands took to social media to express their excitement. Prime Minister Sher Bahadur Deuba tweeted, "Not just me, but the entire nation is proud of you."
Lamichhane, who has been likened to spin legend Shane Warne, made the meteoric rise to the IPL just two years after being selected for Nepal's national team.
"If you get the chance to play in the IPL, lots of players will be there who are very experienced and I think I will learn a lot," Lamichhane, the son of a railway worker, told AFP in Dubai.
Lamichhane's Delhi teammates will include Australian all-rounder Glenn Maxwell and pacemen Trent Boult (New Zealand) and Kagiso Rabada (South Africa), among others.

This is the same reason why MI didn't Bid aggressively to Buttler, as Next Year Also England have ODI Series against Pak in May, Ahead of World Cup, and England Players will leave by May 1st.
Biggest Franchisee to suffer would be RR with Mainstay Stokes and Buttler would not be available in case they make the Qualifiers.....
