The
former Australian spinner and Rajasthan
Royals skipper Shane Warne has urged
the Australian players to take part
in the third season of IPL.
Warne met the premier of Victoria
to address the racist’s attacks
on Indians in the Australian soil.
“There's been things put in
the press about minority incidents
happening in Melbourne, which is a
terrible shame and very unfortunate”—he
said.
"I've been meeting with the premier
of Victoria (John Brumby) to address
a lot of those issues and come up
with a plan to help the relationship
between India and Australia"—he
added.
When questioned about his IPL participation
Warne said he has no issues in coming
to India.
"As far as the IPL is concerned,
I have absolutely no concerns whatsoever.
I'm sure the other Australian players
will be looking forward to it too"
– he said.
Commenting on Indian culture Warne
said that it took a while for him
to appreciate.
“It took me a while to appreciate
the culture, the people and to enjoy
India. The first few (Australia) tours,
when you are losing, getting smashed
all over the park and getting none
for a hundred, it's not much fun”—he
said.
