The 28-year-old, who was bought by Guja🎀🧜rat Titans for a whopping Rs 10 crores, is set to play the second T20I against West Indies at Adelaide Oval on Sunday.
"I'm just❀ taking it in my stride, but when you sit back and think about it it's pr🦂etty ridiculous. I'm here now and just keep going," he was quoted as saying by 'Perth Now'.
"It would be nice to have a couple of performances for Australia, butꦺ the World Cup is still a long while away. And if I have a good IPL then there's every chance I could be in that World Cup squad."
Johnson, who has played on😼e ODI and two T20Is for Australia so far, had taken 19 wickets in 11 innings at an average of 14.47 in a successful campaign in Big Bash League 2023-24.
"I think 🍬what I did in the Big Bash is hopefully going to be good enough," he said.
"I can use the confidence from that finals series to go in and hopefully perform tomorrow𓄧 night, and if I get the opportunity at Optus (Stadium in Perth) to perform there as wel✨l.
"🌃I'm looking forward to the challenge, and I've got some confidence going into the game definitely."
