Harshit Rana, a pacer for the Kolkata Knight Riders, thinks that evaluating the circumstances is crucial to winning the Indian Premier League in 2024. After an incredibly successful season, Rana, who has been a crucial part of KKR’s death over bowling, will look to win his maiden IPL championship.
Despite having only played six games the year before, Harshit’s abundance of variety and pace made him a player to keep an eye on. Harshit has also demonstrated his proficiency with the inswinger and the off-cutters this season, particularly at the end.
With eight wickets at a cost of just 9.04 runs per over in the final five overs of the innings, he has emerged as KKR’s most effective bowler.
After Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj, it is the third-best economy rate overall for bowlers with at least 75 deliveries. In an edition where run rates are at an all-time high, Harshit’s composure under duress is noteworthy.
“The situations are extremely intense”- Harshit Rana
Harshit Rana, a pacer for KKR, feels that the secret to winning the Indian Premier League in 2024 will be to evaluate the circumstances. Rana discussed his focus for the match with Wisden India prior to their matchup against SRH.
“The situations are extremely intense when we are playing on the ground. The earlier you assess the conditions and the wickets, the more advantageous it is for me. So, my first focus and priority are to find out what will work on this wicket,” Harshit Rana told Wisden India.
“It is tough but I have been working hard on these. I keep working on these in the practice sessions, and it becomes easier for me to implement them during the game. It is tough but as I have worked hard on it during training, I know exactly what to bowl when – I have put that pressure on myself to excel in various situations,” Harshit Rana added.
KKR defeated SRH in the Ahmedabad Qualifier 1 to go to the final. In order to win the third championship in the competition’s history, KKR would like to defeat SRH for the third time straight this season.
