Unlike his compatriot Jacob Oram, who
said he could not connect with the IPL, Kiwi batsman James Franklin
said he was enjoying being part of the Indian Premier League.
After playing just two IPL games, Oram returned to his country and said he felt disconnected with the event due to after-match parties, heavy presence Bollywood stars and fashion parades.
Franklin yet again played a good hand in Mumbai's win as he scored an unbeaten 29 in a tight situation on Thursday.
"I have enjoyed it. It's my first experience. I'm with a great franchisee Mumbai Indians. I have really enjoyed thus far. Hopefully we have two games to go and we do go all the way. It's been pretty good fun till now. The passion for the game is amazing here. I have been here for four months since the World Cup. PTI
