IPL 2023 Auction: It is a good feeling to return to Delhi Capitals, says Bengal pacer Mukesh Kumar

The Hindu  

Mukesh Kumar was resting at his hotel room in Bengaluru on Friday afternoon when his phone rang. While it took a bit of time for Mukesh to understand what was going on, he heard the gavel master Hugh Edmeades announce that he was sold to Delhi Capitals for Rs 5.5 crore. And things soon spiced up with Punjab Kings joining the race, but Delhi Capitals stayed on course and ensured that they got Mukesh on board. I believe in hard work and if you ask anyone in Bengal about me, they would all tell you about my hard work and I want to keep things that way,” Mukesh said. Hailing from Kakarkund village in Bihar’s Gopalganj district, Mukesh initially found it difficult to pursue cricket as his father late Kashinath Singh wanted him to join the Indian armed forces and given the fact that Bihar Cricket Association was suspended by the Board of Control for Cricket in India back then, added to the woes.
