Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) looked completely from the species on Monday, April 21, when Gujarat Titans (GT) SHUBMAN GILL (GT) handed them a convincing 39-running defeat in their clash IPL 2025 in Eden Gardens. In addition to winning throwing in the city of joys, there were very little in favor of KKR. This year’s tournament meant their first instance of defeats.
The KKR persecuted the tough goal of 199 and tried to trigger a gt bowling attack under any significant pressure. The required speed of running was constantly rising and eventually slipped out of range. The KRK held their strategy for the tab on the left-right right tab and decided to make a mysterious choice to send the promising young dough Angrish Raghuvansehi in No. 9.
It is irony that Raghuvanki turned out to be the most complete dough at night. His brisk 27 out of 13 balls hit by a strike of 207,69, raised questions about why he was so late.
WITH Ajinkya Rahane anchor the medium crossingKKR decided to send Rinka Singh in front of Andre Russell, although the required running rate was around 13.5. Before Russell entered, the rate threw itself at almost 14.5. Russell, still looking for a form, hit several borders at Washington Sundar before falling on the craft of Rashid Khan.
Once Russell was rejected, the result was closed. The KKR eventually ended up at 159 for eight, which also damaged their clean run, which dropped from +0.547 to +0.212.
“KRKR did not look comfortable”
The former foot-Spinner Anil Kumble, who once represented Royal Challengers Bengalur, did not delay the tactics of the tactics. He criticized their insistence to maintain a combination of batting on the left, suggesting that this can cause more damage than good. Kumble, the leading Indian goal in the international cricket, also stressed that KKR could no longer rely solely on Andre Russell and Rink Singh to save them from difficult situations.
“In the 7th and 12th, the exceeding was lost. They had to take advantage of the chance at that moment because there was still a lot of tabs, and it wasn’t as if there were inexperienced players in the wings. The right left could help.
“Angkrish detonated really well; he could have come to No. 4.” Even Dre Russell could detonate higher. At some point, when you chase the goal, you can’t always leave most of the work with the required rate up to 13, 14 and 15 and expect Rink Singh or Russell to do it all. KKR, in my opinion, did not look very comfortable to persecuted this sum, ”Kumble added.
“More responsibility from the Supreme Order”
Former South African goalkeeper Mark Boucher also considered, stressed that the highest order of KKR must perform and take more responsibility. He pointed out that the expectations that Andre Russell would consistently save the team with his power strike is unrealistic and unfair. The stronger platform above, designed Boucher, relieved the middle order pressure and allowed finals like Russell to play their natural game.
“Yeah, well, I think we are discussing where things went wrong today. And for me, between 7 and ten. They only exceeded 23 runs.
“You can’t let Andre Russell enter with 8 or 9 exceeding to go and the required rate at 14.5 or 15 runs for more.
“Thanks to the batting set, which is dropping to No. 9, you expect the highest order to take over more responsibility. Even if they lose one or two other goals, they must stay in the game long enough for someone like Russell to come and impact,” Boucher added.
After he lost the fifth match and disappeared in the seventh place in the table, Kr tried to repel back when he faced April 26 at Eden Gardens Kings Kings (PBK).
