England all-rounder Chris Jordan cannot wait to play in Lahore once again provided his side can qualify for the Pakistan Super League (PSL) playoffs.
The Peshawar Zalmi man was a part of the squad which lifted the second edition of the PSL in front of a packed house at the Gaddafi stadium in Lahore last year.
Recalling his experience in Pakistan, Jordan lauded the passion of the fans while speaking to Geo.tv.
“I had a great time in Pakistan. All the fans in Lahore were excellent to us. They cheered us on every ball. It was my first visit to Pakistan, the passion there is immense. I’m looking forward to going there again and to providing some entertainment,” Jordan said.
Peshawar Zalmi’s #ChrisJordan eager to visit Pakistan🇵🇰 for PlayOffs:
“Memories of visit to Lahore was second to none. Spectators were cheering on each ball. Waiting to go Lahore & provide entertainment again. Decision of other player’s visit is their personal choice”🏏 #HBLPSL— Arfa Feroz Zake (@ArfaSays_) March 15, 2018
While the Englishman remains open to visiting Pakistan once again for the final stages of the PSL, several other overseas stars like Kevin Pietersen and Eoin Morgan have indicated that they will not be willing to make that journey should their respective teams progress.
Jordan believes each individual has their own decision to make and it should be respected.
“The decision (to play in Pakistan) is individual for everyone. We don’t know anyone’s circumstances, so we can’t judge. For me, that experience in Lahore, that night, was second to none. I’ll never forget it,” the 29-year-old stated.
Peshawar Zalmi currently lie in the fifth spot of the ongoing PSL with nine points from as many games and will be hoping for a win in their final league match to ensure their progression to the playoffs.
