The 26-year-old Ellis got a full go-around on debut against Bangladesh in the just-finished up series in Dhaka, in which, Australia were completely beaten 1-4. In two T20I games, he has asserted five wickets. Ellis broke into the Australian group after a decent Big Bash League season last year, returning 20 wickets for Hobart Hurricanes. With a base cost of INR 20 lakh, Ellis, in any case, had stayed unsold in the IPL closeout recently.
As per cricket.com.au, the 26-year-old right-arm pacer was being pursued by three IPL establishments and the last arrangement was liable to Cricket Australia’s endorsement. Notwithstanding, the Punjab Kings official affirmed the arrangement was finished.
