Looking Forward To Playing Under Ponting's Coaching: Rishad Hossain On Maiden BBL Stint
ICC T20 World Cup: Bangladesh leg-spinner Rishad Hossain expressed his excitement about playing under Australian legend Ricky Ponting's coaching as he prepares to take part in the Big Bash League (BBL 15) for the Hobart Hurricanes this season.
The legspinner, who has just finished a white-ball series against Afghanistan, will be available to play throughout the tournament as the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has granted him a No Objection Certificate (NOC) for the entire season of the BBL, which begins on December 14.
"Ponting was one of my favourite players growing up; I used to watch him play. I'm really looking forward to working with him," Rishad said in a Zoom interaction with reporters on Monday, as quoted by Cricbuzz. "More than the players, I'm looking forward to working with Ricky Ponting and playing under his coaching," he added.
