“Winning Big Was Crucial” – KKR Captain Rahane on Victory Over SRH
After Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) secured a commanding 80-run victory against SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH) on Thursday, captain Ajinkya Rahane highlighted the significance of the win during the post-match presentation. He also shared his satisfaction with the team’s batting display. Rahane stated [as quoted by Cricbuzz]:
“This game was really important for us. Winning by a big margin was crucial. Even we wanted to bowl on this wicket. When we lost two early wickets, we wanted to consolidate till 6 overs – play with intent but play cricketing shots. And then, when we have wickets in hand, guys down the order can get as many runs as possible. Happy with the batting unit. The last two games were not up to the mark for us. But we learned a lot from our mistakes.”
“This is a great example for us as a batting unit. Rinku and Venkatesh – those guys can play brilliant shots. Ramandeep was sitting in the dugout, Dre was sitting, and Moeen was also ready. It was about playing normally till 15 overs and then taking it on.”
“Initially, we thought 170-180 on the surface would be good. Slower balls were gripping. We had three quality spinners. Moeen, unfortunately, couldn’t bowl tonight. Sunny and Varun bowled really well. The credit goes to Vaibhav and Harshit as well,” Rahane added.
