Dale Steyn shines in Big Bash
Dale Steyn is currently playing for Melbourne Stars in Australia’s Big Bash League. After missing few matches due to injury, Dale has given good account of his fitness in the recent couple of matches. He also seems to be finding his best form with the ball as well. Next few weeks are going to be crucial for him as he is aiming for a place in South African T20 side for the World Cup in October.

Dale Steyn key to RCB’s plans

Royal Challengers Bangalore’s think tank, under the directions of Mike Hesson, will be relying heavily on Dale Steyn in next year’s IPL. He will be having a big role to play along with fellow South African Chris Morris not only on the field but also guiding Young Indian Fast bowling core of RCB.

Fans are already excited with the prospects of seeing Dale Steyn doing his things at Chinnaswamy Stadium. Only time will tell whether ‘Steyn Gun’ helps RCB to end their Championship drought.
