    But that doesn't stop him from feeling a tinge of envy.

    The Black Caps allrounder was this week picked up by Indian Premier League side the Kings XI Punjab for 115 thousand dollars.

    Kings XI are coached by former New Zealand mentor Mike Hesson.



    Neesham will likely turn out for the Firebirds in this afternoon's domestic Twenty20 game in Wellington against Otago.
