A WHIRLWIND few weeks for Hollywoodbets Dolphins all-rounder Rob Frylinck which started with the birth of his first child last week has ended with a call up to the Trinbago Knight Riders for the upcoming Caribbean Premier League.
Frylinck traveled to the Caribbean island on Saturday and says that this opportunity was something that he was never going to be able to pass up.
“I have been waiting for something like this for ages. I have put in some good performances in limited overs cricket for a while and when I got the call up I was quick to take the opportunity.”
Frylinck, who had a stint in the Indian Premier League with the Delhi Daredevils, is looking forward to rubbing shoulders with cricketers from other nationalities.
“To be involved in an international tournament is one of the most exciting things for me and to play and mix with some of the best players in the world will be great for me. When you mix with these sorts of players your game can only improve and hopefully I can bring that back to the Dolphins before the start of next season,” he added.
Frylinck will be rubbing shoulders with former Dolphins team mate, Dwayne Bravo, as well as New Zealand super star, Brendon McCullum, and current Kiwi big-hitter, Colin Munro.
The Caribbean will also prove a new experience for the 32-year-old Frylinck as he heads to the islands for the first time.
“It’s always exciting when you go to a new place and with all of this happening so quickly it still hasn’t quite sunk in.”
