Kolkata Knight Riders were dominant in their Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 match against Royal Challengers Bangalore last week and the occasion was made extra special by the attendance of owner and superstar Shah Rukh Khan. The star actor supported his side from the stands at the Eden Gardens and following the massive win, he joined the celebrations with the cricketers in the dressing room. In a video posted on Twitter, Shah Rukh Khan could be seen interacting with Afghanistan wicketkeeper batsman Rahmanullah Gurbaz and his gesture won the hearts of many fans. Shah Rukh, who had a brilliant outing at the box office with ‘Pathaan', attempted to speak in Persian and the interaction ended with both of them hugging each other. Gurbaz had previously expressed his love for the star actor.
After a comprehensive victory over Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB), Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) regroup to take on the defending champions Gujarat Titans (GT) in their third match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 campaign. With Shakib Al Hasan ruling himself out of the tournament, the Knight Riders picked Jason Roy as his replacement. Up against the Titans who haven't lost a single game since the start of the season, could the Kolkata franchise give the English opener his debut for the season?
Kolkata Knigth Riders (KKR) co-owner Shah Rukh Khan was present in the stands during his side's match against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) at the Eden Gardens on Thursday. Star all-rounder Shardul Thakur produced a spell bounding innings, scoring the joint-fastest fifty of IPL 2023 to rescue KKR from a tricky position. He scored 68 off just 29 deliveries after coming at no.7. Shardul came into bat when KKR were 89/5 in the 12th over. As Shardul was walking back to the dugout, after being dismissed by Mohammed Siraj, Shah Rukh Khan acknowledged his contribution and gave a standing ovation to the player.
Smarting from back-to-back defeats, Sunrisers Hyderabad will have a lot to ponder, especially addressing their batting frailties, when they take on a high-flying Punjab Kings in the Indian Premier League in Hyderabad on Sunday. For a team that finished at the eighth spot in the last two editions, SRH would have hoped for a better start to the season but they ended up suffering two crushing defeats at the hands of Rajasthan Royals and Lucknow Super Giants respectively. A poor show with the bat despite some exciting players in the line-up is the prime reason behind their failure. Sunrisers' struggles to build partnership saw them score 131 and 121 in their two matches so far.
Pakistan on Friday appointed Grant Bradburn as the head coach of their men's team for their upcoming limited-overs series against New Zealand. Bradburn, 56, played seven Tests and 11 one-day internationals for New Zealand before taking up coaching. The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) added that Andrew Puttick of South Africa will join the staff as batting coach. The head coach position fell vacant after Saqlain Mushtaq's term ended in February. Abdul Rahman filled in for the three Twenty20s against Afghanistan last month.
After facing a crushing defeat in their IPL 2023 campaign opener, Sunrisers Hyderabad will be bolstered by the return of their South African recruits, including their newly-appointed skipper Aiden Markram when they face Lucknow Super Giants in an away match on Friday. Markram missed the first game due to national commitment and it was Bhuvneshwar Kumar, who led SRH in the game, which they lost by a huge 72-run margin against Rajasthan Royals. But in a big boost to the team, Markram and two fellow South Africans -- Marco Jansen and Heinrich Klaasen -- have joined the side after completing their national duty.
