European T20 Premier League: Heinrich Klaasen has set his sights on winning trophies for the teams that he plays for after having hung up his boots from international cricket. Klaasen, who is plying his trade for Manchester Super Giants in the ongoing The Hundred gears up for the final against 2022 champions Trent Rockets on Sunday in what is a rematch of 2022's final.
Speaking ahead of the final, Klaasen laid down his main goals in franchise competitions. "Winning trophies is one goal. It’s been a lean run on the trophies, so the personal goal is to get into, and get the team into positions to win trophies. Then, obviously, a big challenge now, playing less cricket, is to keep the quality of cricket up," he told JioHotstar.
Klaasen had a stellar IPL 2026 with Sunrisers Hyderabad, wherein he scored 624 runs in 15 innings and had an impressive start to The Hundred too. "I had a good IPL, I’ve had a good start to The Hundred, it was a little bit silent in the middle, but the key was to get some runs under the belt and keep my standard up to what it normally is," Klaasen added.
