'Try to focus on my power': Narine reflects on everyday glamor in KKRS dominant victory over CSK

Chennai (Tamil Nadu) [India]April 12 (Ani): Sunil Narine gave a startling action to lead Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) to an eight-wicket commander over Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the Indian Premier League (IPL) collision Friday. The victory was the third win of KKR in six games this season, which drove them to third place on the scoring table. Narine chose to bowl first, and was exceptional with the ball and returned figures of 3/13 of his four overs. His game derailed the turn of CSK, while the veteran spinner kept the fighters in check and picked up important wickets during the middle overs. CSK was only able to drive 103/9 in their 20 overs. Narine’s impact was not just limited to the ball. He opened the turn with Quinton de Kock and launched a fiery counter -attack and knocked 44 runs off 19 balls, including two fours and five sixes. The pair added 46 runs for the opening stand and set the tone for a quick chase. KKR chased the target in 10.1 overs, a result that also significantly increased their net run rate. Narine said during the presentation after the match after being named Player of the Match, “almost [a complete game]hope the next time I can take a catch too. Try to focus on my strength. Preparers play well, but if you focus too much on fighters, you’re already on the back foot. You get used to and try to adjust as soon as possible, “as cited from ESPNCRICINFO. Narine also emphasized his role at the top of the order.” It’s very simple – try to make the team fly. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t, ‘he said. With both Bat and Ball, Narine’s glamor has proven too much for CSK at night. (Ani) first published: 12 Apr 2025, 04:01 am Ist
