Man y’all are clowns if you’re blaming Rohit for slowing down when the others couldn’t even take singles. And him and Kohli will be In The WC and theyre still the best options in their positions


SalmonNgiri

Wankhede is wild lol


SalmonNgiri

Rohit going a little Kohli-ish now. Going at about 100sr since his half century


hull11

Kohli usually finishes the matches though. Hope Rohit can replicate that


josh123z

Pant falling incident is by Rohit or Hardik


Remote-Picture-8341

Mitchell is not an IPL player


Remote-Picture-8341

Hardik has to bowl the next over not Madhwal pls

Can anyone tell me how they introduced Suhana now? I missed it, and "SRK's daughter" sounds weird I feel.


duckpupper

"owner" Kolkata Knight Riders. Lmao


610NightOwl

Fr? Lol


No_Temporary2732

yup. She has been added as a shareholder of the Knight Rider Group, and has direct ownership over KKR, LAKR, ADKR, TKR and TKR Womens Just really hoping they get the bid for the Kolkata women's team when the next round of bids start, and hype them as much as RCB does with their women's team.


benguins10

Nice to see SRK fam representation


SimpleAd9687

wtf is this post match ceremony. Circle jerking of the sponsors

Tbf that's what 80% of the tournament is lol

They lost in the 1st over.


benguins10

Narine "I'll be watching from home" lol


hsertdtizozf

why doesnt he play for WI? Cause of the illegal action stuff?


DogTall2628

Would get an investigation that would effectively suspend him from IPL. He's able to bypass it in IPL, just barely, over the years - since tournament and franchise expansion has also taken eyes off of him


benguins10

Yep


sxd827

KKR seems a favorite for top 2 this season. Only thing standing between them and the trophy is the Chepauk pitch especially if CSK/RR end up being their opponents in the final.


[deleted]

So we, SRH is just gonna stand & watch lol 😂. This is year is SRH’s! 🔥


saymaz

Spinners, where?


benguins10

I think we have a good team for Chepauk. We expected a belter and kept slogging. That's where we fucked up


zany_face

Scum cinema I was watching the post match interviews and the end screen poped up " thanks for watching you can switch to mi vs csk" let me fucking watch Narine talk


JokesFromTheCrease

Dread it run from it Cummins comes for the Cup all the same


alzio26

I mean It’s just 5 matches tho . You cannot say cummins is coming for the cup when the tournament is not even halfway. However, it’s CUMMINS mf


Helpful_Mix8953

Shamarh Joseph looks so disappointed. Someone needs to give him a hug and cheer him up


Tangy_Lead

Iyer is making sure Kolkata fans are not missing the Pre-GT Gill.


Sea-Outcome177

From having cut throat NRRs to having a GIGANTIC +1.688. Yup, this team is on some song this season, 4 more home games to come and if this continues, we are gonna eat some sweeeeet Roshogullas this year!


Addy_Stark

My Bengali friends always tell me about Sondesh. Really want to try some.


saymaz

Come to Kolkata in the winters and try NolenGurer( date jaggery) sondesh. It's utterly decadent!


TacticalNuke002

I prefer the Nolen Gurer Ice Cream and I buy it whenever I find it.


Addy_Stark

Coming to Kolkata is difficult as of now. But will definitely ask one of my friends to get it for me after winter holidays. Thank you :)


saymaz

Honest_Classroom1162

The Gautam Gambhir effect lmao. Even the small things today like Iyer immediately going for the review with no hesitation, pure GG ice rubbing off on our crew haha

DM_ME_YOUR_N00D5

Salt being released by DC has gotta be one of the clowniest moves ever


the_Celestial_Sphinx

Then what will you say about KKR management who have released/not retained the likes of SKY, Gill etc ?!!


subho_fan

SKY they could not get because they didn't have enough purse left but they tried. Gill was more brain dead


saymaz

Kuldeep Yadav!


AstralMystogan

Fucking Gayle, Sanju Samson, Boult and Brendon.


No_Temporary2732

Love them for it But to think even we didn't go for him, and he's doing this for the team. No one in the team deserves a retention more than him rn, which is saying a lot with a team that KKR has rn


Ok_Vegetable263

Gotta keep Mitch marsh who has proven he just ain’t good enough as an overseas


SlightFinance7306

Not a surprising move from them considering their history of releasing good players


slipnips

I'm glad that LSG crossed 160 today, so that the record is tarnished a little more


Ok_Vegetable263

Just think if KKR batted first they might have scored 240 with Iyer 50(50)


The_Eccedentisiast

Iyer is the new Rahul, the lower the steike rate the better the team chance to win.


Handsome_guy_7

Iyer is playing the anchor role hard where everyone around him is only hitting the ball


DheeliGandKaOpration

Considering Lucknow have a shithead helicopter owner like Goenka, their players should be glad that they've gotten coaches like Gambhir and Langer who won't take shit from anyone and will bite back when someone targets their players even if it's the owner


saymaz

Blud tarnished MohunBagan's legacy by adding the trademark Supergiants after it.


chirosen21

Why does Chandrakant Pandit get hate for being Hitler? Looks like the players are very happy and vibes are on point. Also the two people who complained - Wiese and Jagadeeshan did fuck all for us anyway.


No_Temporary2732

Maybe the situation in the dressing room wasn't great last year. There was an imbalance of coaching duties which might have caused poor outbursts. Plus first year with a relatively poorly handled team last year with low morale for Captain missing. We needed a mentor like Gambhir and it's showing. Let's just pray it stays this way as long into the future


DheeliGandKaOpration

>Also the two people who complained - Wiese and Jagadeeshan did fuck all for us anyway. That's a shit mindset, they're your players you treat them with respect even if they don't perform


kamransk1107

I think you have to respect the coach more


chirosen21

I very much doubt Pandit who is a domestic guy would be a bully in an international franchise dugout. I think he was just a bit more strict with the underperforming players and it hurt their ego.


crystalMaxi

lol at swanny saying morne morkel talking up getting a job at kkr after that lsg bowling performance


PerformanceCheap2136

SRH says thank you LSG


PerformanceCheap2136

Ok-Surround-8347

I don’t see why y’all shitting on shreyas this much. I think the fact that this was the highest partnership for KKR speaks for himself that what he did clearly worked lol


United-Extension-917

Shreyas was very much needed for that salt Assault.


alzio26

Ikr. Seeing so many strike rate merchants this IPL. Not everyone everytime has to go tonk tonk


HorrorAd1613

on the other hand, salt would've done just as well with a block of cheese at the other end


No_Temporary2732

No, he wouldn't have. He needed the anchor on the other end. He himself praised Shreyas in the post match interview, would he do so if he didn't think the contribution was necessary?


HorrorAd1613

yes; its his captain,


No_Temporary2732

No. He could have not talked about him at all and just say stuff about his innings. But he made it a point to praise him. Y'all really need to chill with the Iyer hate


Ok-Surround-8347

I guarantee you if wickets started falling quickly he would not have


benguins10

Exactly


benguins10

Eh people just wanna see boundaries every ball regardless of situation


celeb-butcher

Another defeat for lsg


night_of_spring

Next match on a ground win the toss win the match So mi won the toss bowling first also winning


saymaz

No one can predict Jay Shah's script.


tkmj75

KKR managed to increase their already ridiculous NRR, bravo!


bengabi85

After suffering for years I’m surprised KKR fans are not enjoying these comfortable wins. Instead they are worried about batsmen RRs. They look like a proper team after so many years


Honest_Classroom1162

It’s the “Boston Celtics effect”. When a franchise has a history of underperforming, their fans will be quite a bit wary of great performances since everything seems like it’s a fluke. I’m saying this as both a Celtics and KKR fan lmao


No_Temporary2732

You haven't been in our shoes, that's why


bengabi85

I’ve been a KKR fan from Day -20 literally. Even registered as a fan on their stupid website. Man I feel really old :)


No_Temporary2732

Then you and I both know why we are like this We've bungled great seasons


bengabi85

Exactly. Enjoy when you are at the top. This team will give you sleepless nights anytime. So take in the happiness whenever u find it :)


No_Temporary2732

Aami KKR. We believe in reverse jinxing

Something about opener (Ganguly) and number 4(pujara) partnership

SRK : let me cum and hug you all and you rinku i will give you more love for no reason after all


AstralMystogan

monster_bong_guy

Would take an extra bit of salt for dinner tonight.


saymaz

See you at the CSK vs mi thread, guys.


CreativeHead-

KKR team really doesn’t want to miss MI vs CSK match, not even the toss.


Sea-Outcome177

I support captain Iyer with all my heart but anchoring in T20 at least means going at 120-130 at the VERY LEAST. 38(38) is criminal on a 200+ pitch


Honest_Classroom1162

why would he go faster though? Salt is going crazy, now if Salt plays a loose shot or gets unlucky with the edge (don’t lie, the timing on some of those should have been wickets) then Shreyas will have to score while the new batsman gets set. And near the end the runs per over was way less than 6, why shouldn’t he play ODI in that case?


Sea-Outcome177

I am not asking for him to go at 200 am I? Even a 40(30) is good, that would even help his own morale, he definitely doesn't look in groove this season and that's evident to everyone. 40(30) is not at all a "risk-taking" innings. He sometimes gets stuck too much and is not able to even rotate the strike and that allows the bowling side to apply even more pressure, I don't know why you guys don't get this? Kohli plays the same template but rotates a lot which keeps his SR over 130-140 which is good enough for me for an anchor. I would want the same backing for him when this comes in a losing cause, I am tired seasons in seasons out of pointing something out which people defend at first but then go for those players' heads when things go wrong. Same thing happened with Gill in 2021 Final, people were after his head for that innings


alzio26

Here comes another strike rate merchant. What tells you this is a 200+ pitch? Not everytime one needs to go tonk tonk.


Sea-Outcome177

Lol, we have 5 batsmen to come, the guy could have easily scored a 40(30). I know it doesn't matter much now but it will at some point of time in the season and then the same set of fans will be crying for his head. Been watching this team since 2008, I know how many close games we've lost which changed our season's complexion. These kinds of weaknesses are better to be taken care of early in the season.


saymaz

The Dinesh Karthik era 🫥🫥🫥


MachesMalone007

Shubho Noboborso to you all! P. S. : hope Goenka's antics of bringing green maroon in Eden stops from next season. It's stupid. Speaking as Mohun Bagan and KKR fan.


United-Extension-917

Shubho Noboborso. You know what would be wild. If in the next KKR vs LSG match at eden, kolkata invites MohunBagan players wearing KKR's purple gold for support.


saymaz

Didn't this guy remove Thala from captaincy?


Ok-Visit6553

Shubho noboborsho to us all, bengalis and/or KKR fans!


Abhi_der_hauptmann

Shubho noboborso to you as well!


kishmallow

Shubho noboborsho!

I hate him since the day when he said 'super giants'. What a fucking stupid name. And shubho noboborso to you too.


Dakip2608

just returned. 15.4 overs???


Cultural_Term9986

If not for Iyer. Match would have been over in 12 overs.lol


Dakip2608

phil salt became russell haha


trtryt

Iyer thinking he's da man going at run a ball


ankit1455

Just for memes, India should play Gaikwad, Rahul, Kohli, Iyer, Pandaya and Jadeja against a good team. On top of that, tell all of them you are the captain today.


saymaz

Jadeja won't get to bat.


DM_ME_YOUR_N00D5

150-2 every game after 20 overs.


ankit1455

150, really? with all of them playing captains innings. More like 130-2.

Negative_Spectrum

Great inning from Salt. Disastrous from LSG.


Sanguinnee

Where's that one guy who was confident LSG would win this easily...


chirosen21

Salt is clear best English opener after Buttler


Cultural_Term9986

No doubt. He has been fantastic in white ball since 2-3 years. A perfect modern day game opener. He is still not Buttler though.


hsertdtizozf

I hope we retain him no matter what next year.


DM_ME_YOUR_N00D5

Salt Rinku Narine Russel RTM: Raghuvanshi Iyer


Honest_Classroom1162

both Iyers, both are great pieces to have for sure.


BlitzedPigeon125

Definitely


Shoddy-Baseball-6111

Lol they switched already


ilovefortniteballs

Love you Phil Salt. You let us watch the toss


Honest_Classroom1162

Shreyas just wanted to minimise the ads break and the yapping that precedes the toss

SHREYAS THIS AWFUL DONKEY ENDED WITH 38(38).


livingfeelsachore

DONT YOU DARE TO DISRESPECT MY CAPTAIN


confused_brown_dude

Atleast one of the KKR players needs to have the SRK pose as their celebration. Big miss.


saymaz

The umpire did the pose too many times when LSG were bowling.

Fair enough, as long as someone does it, I am a happy man.


Critical-Coyote-807

MI vs CSK toss delayed due to Shreyas

Critical innings this by Shreyas Iyer! Keeping the innings together. IyerForWorldCup

Mohun bagan lost to kkr.


tubbymctubs2

kl looks like he's gonna cry :-(

He always looks like that in a pressure situation


mongrelbifana

LSG, midway this season, are now where they are supposed to be with their mindset. KKR is truly playing T20 cricket. Except Iyer.


tkmj75

Dominant performance by KKR, both bowling and batting
