IPL 2023: Shardul Takes Eden Garden By Storm

Shardul Thakur smashed RCB bowlers left, right and centre. He was the architect of the KKR’s win in the IPL 2023. Shardul Thakur won Man of the Match for his spectacular performance. Coming in at number 7 Thakur made his career-best score of 68.

He showed no signs of mercy. Shardul also took 1 wicket in the second innings. Shardul single-handedly snatched the victory from RCB.

He played one of the finest innings of IPL 2023. Kolkata Knight Riders bought Shardul for a whopping 10.75 cr in the auction.
He proved his worth yesterday against RCB. Kolkata was struggling at 89 for 5 when Shardul came in to bat. He took on every bowler he faced.

Shardul Thakur has evolved into more of a batting all-rounder in recent times. He has proved his batting multiple times in red-ball cricket as well.

Sehwag tweeted praising Shardul and Rinku for their batting display. Shardul Thakur replied to this tweet saying “Paaji, aap se hi to seekhe hai! Aap to Guru ho clean hitting ke. Aapse accha kaun maarta hai fast bowler ko. Hum bhi dekh dekh ke hi seekhe hai (Sir, we have learned how to hit the ball from you only. Who else did such clean hitting against the fast bowlers? We have learned it from seeing you play.)”

Shardul Thakur replied to Sehwag saying we’ve learnt it from you. Shardul Thakur has also been a regular player for the Indian side. He is a perfect all-rounder one can have in the side. Gurbaz and Rinku Singh both played crucial knocks, their knocks are as important as that of Shardul Thakur.

KKR did not disappoint King Khan yesterday, as he was in the stands cheering for his KKR side. KKR now has the best net run rate of +2.056 in the points table.
