IPL 2022: KKR Player Sam Billings Calls This League As Biggest Domestic Tournament In The World

I think the IPL is the biggest domestic tournament in the world - Sam Billings

New Delhi: KKR wicketkeeper batter Sam Billings has joined the team camp ahead of the tournament opener against CSK. The 30-year old is practicing hard in case he gets a chance to feature in the playing XI. He is no less than a T20 veteran with 215 games under his belt. In a recent video posted by the official twitter account franchise, Billings can be seen heaping huge praises for IPL.

Talking about the start of a new season, Sam Billings told Kolkata Knight Riders:

“Sam Hai Taiyaar. KKR Hai Taiyaar. I think the IPL is the biggest domestic tournament in the world. You don’t need to say anything more than that. It’s my sixth year and absolutely love playing over here in India.”

“I think the support, the fans take it to a completely different dimension to any other sport in the world. You’ve got 1.2 billion people or so. And everyone absolutely loves cricket. So it’s a pleasure for players to play here. It’s an honor to play here,” Billings added.
