Lee has great supporter base in India, says NSW coach

Sydney, Sep.16 (ANI): New South Wales cricket team coach Mathew Mott believes that fast bowler Brett Lee will have a huge impact during next month's Champions League tournament in India because he has a huge supporter base in the country.

"He's got a great supporter base in India. The way he carries himself, he's a great icon for Australian sport. He will be welcomed back with open arms, but I can't see how anyone could go in there claiming favouritism. It's just such an unknown tournament. It's two games, it's sink or swim straight away.

If you have a bad couple of hours, that's the end of the tournament," the Sydney Morning Herald quoted Mott, as saying. (ANI)
