( Thetimesofcapital ) 27 Jun 2021 According to sources, Mulgrave Cricket Club, which plays in Melbourne’s Eastern Cricket Association (ECA) third level competition, said that they are also in talks with West Indies legend Brian Lara and South African great AB de Villiers. Mulgrave has already roped in Sri Lanka’s Tillakaratne Dilshan and Upul Tharanga with Sanath Jayasuriya as their head coach for the summer.

Mulgrave chairman Milan Pulaneygam said that talks are on with former India all-rounder Yuvraj and West Indies Gayle. We have secured Dilshan, Sanath, Tharanga. We are now working on finalizing agreements with some other potential players. We are in talks, and with Chris (Gayle) and Yuvraj we are around 85 to 90 percent. We need to finalize a few things. The two cricketers are yet to comment on the conversation. We’ve got a good amount of support at the moment that will bring us over the line, but we don’t want to break it, we want to be able to give back to the community and expand the club’s structure. There are a lot of things we need to include in their tours of Australia with these big names. We want to get them in touch with their sponsors and see if they can give something back to the club and sponsors. So it’s part of all the conversations and conversations that we’re having with them.
