Royal Challengers Bangalore sign England all-rounder Chris Jordan
Mumbai, Apr 27 (IBNS) Royal Challengers Bangalore have signed England all-rounder Chris Jordan as a replacement to Australian fast bowler Mitchell Starc, who was ruled out of the remainder of the VIVO IPL 2016 due to a foot injury, the BCCI said in a statement.
Jordan has build-on a reputation as a white-ball ‘death’ bowler during England’s recent campaign in the World Twenty20 final at Kolkata’s Eden Gardens ground, taking six wickets in a tournament where his side finished runners-up to the West Indies.
Jordan will join fellow English cricketers - Jos Buttler, Sam Billings and his national T20 captain Eoin Morgan in VIVO IPL 2016.
