Apart from Dale Steyn, there are other star players like Eoin Morgan, JP Duminy, Imran Tahir and Rashid Khan have joined the tournament and more high-profile cricketers are expected to join the league.

Further, it comes to know that the recently-retired Yuvraj Singh also set to make his appearance in the Euro T20 slam. Yuvraj Singh revealed that he already received an offer. Alongside Yuvraj, one more Indian set to make his presence for the tournament but the name is yet to be revealed.

Earlier, in IPL 2019, out of nowhere, Dale Steyn has landed in the Indian Premier League 2019 at the crunch situation for Royal Challengers Bangalore. He made a massive impact on the game to see Virat Kohli-led side cross the victory line on two occasions when he was in the playing XI.

However, he was ruled out of the remainder of the tournament and will head back home for his recovery ahead of ICC World Cup 2019 but that wasn’t the case, as he ruled out from the grand event as well. Dale Steyn got an inflammation on his shoulder, which troubled him earlier as well.
