But on April 28, King Khan was seen in a different mood, creating magic with the bat.
King Khan and his Younger Ones Joined the Knights:
On April 29, Kolkata Knight Riders is all set to face Delhi Capitals at the Eden Gardens. Before the match, the Knights were assigned to practice at Eden Gardens. In that practice session, Shahrukh Khan and his younger son AbRam joined the players in the practice session. It was the first time that King Khan joined the Knights in a practice session.
Shah Rukh Khan took a break from his busy schedule to attend Kolkata Knight Riders’ (KKR) training session before their showdown with Delhi Capitals (DC) at Eden Gardens in Kolkata. Accompanied by his son Abram, he observed the rigorous training regimen of the players. Demonstrating his cricketing skills, SRK faced throwdowns from star batter Rinku Singh with finesse, showcasing his prowess with the bat. A viral video captured his every move, affirming that the Bollywood icon is no stranger to the cricket pitch.
In several viral clips, Abram was captured showcasing his bowling skills to Rinku Singh, a key player for KKR. Witnessing AbRam’s delivery, Rinku was taken aback when the youngster bowled a wide yorker, showcasing surprising accuracy. The young enthusiast reveled in the opportunity to bowl to KKR’s formidable finisher, embodying sheer joy with every delivery. These moments unfolded during a net session on the eve of KKR’s match against DC, adding an unexpected twist to the team’s preparations.
Coach’s View on Upcoming Fixtures:
In their recent clash against Punjab, KKR faltered in defending 261 runs as PBKS capitalized on Jonny Bairstow’s sensational century to achieve the highest-ever successful chase in IPL history. Despite a nail-biting 1-run victory against RCB after posting 222, KKR faced a setback against Rajasthan, failing to defend the same total following a remarkable hundred by Jos Buttler.
Before facing Delhi Capitals, KKR head Chandrakant Pandit is all positive. He said, “In the middle of the tournament, we can’t keep cribbing about it, we have to see what is in our control and how to execute our plans.”
After that, he added, “We want to look at the positive side of it. The result may have gone the other way. But the team is really playing well. We played superb cricket. To put up 260-plus also requires equal effort. It’s not that team is getting bowled out for 100-150 runs. We are full of confidence.”
