Mitchell Santner, the New Zealand international player, has been a member of the Chennai Super Kings team in the current season of the Indian Premier League (IPL). However, he has not been able to secure a spot in the playing eleven for all matches, and he has only played in three out of seven games for his franchise this season. Despite his limited playing time, Santner may still be hopeful of making a strong return in the next game he is selected for.

Unfortunately, Santner has not been able to make a significant impact in the matches he has played in so far, and his performance has not been particularly noteworthy. He has managed to secure three dismissals in these matches, but he has yet to make a significant contribution to the team’s success.

During this season’s IPL, Simon Doull, a New Zealand commentator who is part of the commentary panel, made headlines for making an insensitive remark about Mitchell Santner. After the game between KKR and CSK, Doull spoke to Santner and told him to “enjoy the night and carry the drinks well.”

Here’s the banter between Simon Doull and Mitchell Santner:

Many fans were left feeling that Simon Doull’s comment to Mitchell Santner was insensitive and potentially hurtful. During their conversation, Santner responded to Doull’s remark by saying, “I’ll try, I’ll try.” The incident was caught on video and has since gone viral online.

Despite the seemingly friendly nature of their exchange, some fans have criticized Doull for making a derogatory comment to Santner, who has not been able to secure a consistent spot in the playing eleven. Doull’s comment may have been intended as a lighthearted joke, but it has sparked a debate online about the treatment of players who are not able to play in every match.
