According to latest information in a recent Cricbuzz update, the most recent update suggests that Ambati Rayudu could potentially become a member of the Joburg Super Kings during the second season of SA20 League in South Africa.
This decision follows Rayudu’s earlier move to join the St Kitts & Nevis Patriots for the upcoming season of the Caribbean Premier League (CPL) 2023.
Additionally, Ambati Rayudu had initially been set to participate in the Major League Cricket (MLC) as part of the Texas Super Kings. However, he withdrew from the event due to personal reasons.
Presently, the owners of the Chennai Super Kings, who also own the Joburg Super Kings, are in the process of persuading Rayudu to partake in the second edition of the SA20 League.
Kasi Viswanathan, the CEO of CSK, discussed the potential for Ambati Rayudu to join the Joburg Super Kings. He revealed that talks are in progress with captain Faf du Plessis and head coach Stephen Fleming, and it’s likely that the former Indian batter will become part of the team.
After securing victory with the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023, Ambati Rayudu retired from Indian cricket.
This decision rendered him eligible to participate in overseas leagues. It’s worth noting that the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) forbids players from engaging in foreign leagues until they retire from all forms of the sport.
Ambati Rayudu is set to join the St Kitts & Nevis Patriots for the CPL, taking the place of Tristan Stubbs within the team. The Caribbean Premier League (CPL) 2023 is scheduled to take place between August 16 and September 24.
