IPL 2020: No hard feelings towards KKR, says Chris Lynn after release

The 29-year old pointed out that there are players twice as good as him who were released by IPL franchises, therefore he is not upset with KKR who he feels are desperate to win their third crown. "There are players twice as good as me that have been released from franchises so KKR want to win the tournament and that's the priority for (head coach) Brendon McCullum."

Lynn hoped a good outing at the T10 League will augur well for him ahead of the IPL auctions. "The auctions coming up, so if I happen to score a few more runs and be fresh in the mind of some coaches, that's a positive." On not getting to a hundred despite coming so close, he said: "When you get closer to a hundred, you want to get there. But at the end of the day, the guy at the other end was hitting boundaries as well.

"So to get to 139 on that wicket was a really good job. Would have been nice to get first hundred of T10 but there are plenty of games left so will hopefully get another opportunity to do that. I got a slow start so happy."
