Boult, who bagged 22 wickets for runner-up New Zealand in the World Cup, was snapped up by SRH for a whopping Rupees 3.8 crore - a massive surge from his base price of 50 lakh - in the February auctions. The left-arm seamer is keen to swing things for SRH.
"Yes, the length changes I guess. I have played a few games in India and the wickets here are a bit slower. With the night games and humidity, the moisture in the air, I hope the ball swings and hopefully I get success with that. I will try and pitch the ball up as much as possible to get the ball swinging," Boult told PTI in an interview.
"Amazing, I am very much looking forward to it. Not only Steyn but also looking forward to working with the Kumars (Bhuvneshwar and Praveen) and Ishant as well. It's so great to be playing with the heroes and sharing with them the same dressing room. Dale is a wonderful bowler with so much of knowledge. Hope he can share some of that knowledge with me," Boult said.
"Obviously it's going to be a different experience. Last month playing against them in a grand final and a couple of weeks later he is my captain, so it's very unique. But very much looking forward to working with him," said the 25-year-old player.
