In the caption, Shah Rukh began, “To my boys…. my team…. my champs….’these blessed candles of the night’ …. My Stars…of KKR.”
He then highlighted the contribution and hard work of the players and wrote:
“I cannot do a lot of things and you cannot do them all either…but together we manage most of them. That’s what @KKRiders stood for. Simply being together.”
“Beyond the ability and guidance of @GautamGambhir….the earnestness of Chandu, the love of @abhisheknayar1 & leadership of @ShreyasIyer15… the dedication of @rtendo27, Bharat Arun @1crowey & @Numb3z… this team is built on no hierarchy just pure respect for collaboration.”
Gautam Gambhir’s recommendation
He further shared Gautam Gambhir’s advice to the team in the caption, and wrote:
“GG said if u can’t support a single vision as a team….u are leading to a division in the team. Each player understood that. Young and old. The Trophy is not a testament of having the best players in the team….but a proof of each player being the best for the team.”
“Boys you are all made of Star stuff!! Love you all and don’t let the dancing stop! Also, so happy and thankful for each and every KKR fan and I hope all around the world youngsters learn that Tough times don’t last….Finally Tough and Happy teams do! Korbo…Lorbo…Jeetbo….Always. See u all at the stadia in 2025.”
After the match, Shah Rukh met with his team players and congratulated them on winning the IPL final. A video shows Harshit Rana hugging Shah Rukh and lifting him in excitement.
