In the IPL, having one opener who scores more than 400 runs very quickly is great for the team. KKR have two of these amazing players this season. That’s why they are at the top of the points table. Their overall net run rate is much better than other teams. Narine and Salt, the openers, have been really good against different teams and in different conditions. They’ve made their team very strong.
Even in a big ground in Lucknow, they played well against the strong bowling team of LSG. They’ve had six fifty-plus opening partnerships in 11 games, which is the most by any opening pair this season. The way they play is amazing. The team captain, Shreyas Iyer, praised them a lot after the game.
The left-right combination of Narine and Salt makes it hard for the other team. It’s all about them playing freely and positively, no matter what happens.
KKR’s ups and downs end in wins.
Kolkata Knight Riders have had a mix of good and bad games this season. But they’ve been playing really good cricket. They’ve won three games in a row now. Iyer says it’s been a crazy ride for them. They’ve had ups and downs, but what matters is they are winning.
Sunil Narine has been a key player for KKR. He’s been performing well with both bat and ball. He give credits to his success to the support from the team management.
KKR’s win in Lucknow was important because it’s not easy to score runs there. LSG’s bowling is usually strong, but they couldn’t stop Narine and Salt. KKR’s bowlers also did a great job later on. They understood the pitch well and executed their plans better than LSG. This understanding of the pitch has been important in all their wins the match .
