Shah Rukh Khan pens an appreciation note message for KKR team for their stellar performance

 

Mumbai: After losing a closely-fought match against Rajasthan Royals, Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) team co-owner and actor Shah Rukh Khan penned an uplifting note, appreciating the players’ stellar performance. Taking to Twitter, SRK lauded the team members — especially captain Shreyas Iyer, pacer Umesh Yadav and Australian batter Aaron Finch.

‘Well played boys. Stupendous effort by @ShreyasIyer15 @AaronFinch5 @y_umesh’, he tweeted. SRK also congratulated bowler Sunil Narine for playing his 150th match for KKR and head coach Brendon McCullum for smashing an unbeaten 158 in the first-ever match of the IPL history 15 years ago. ‘Congrats to #SunilNarine for the 150th match and @Bazmccullum for that innings 15 yrs ago. I know we lost but if we have to go down this is the only way to do it! Keep ur chins up….’, King Khan emphasised.

 

Jos Buttler’s 103-run knock, his second of the season, and Yuzvendra Chahal’s five-wicket haul which also included a hat-trick powered Rajasthan Royals to a thrilling seven-run win against Kolkata Knight Riders. Ravichandran Ashwin took only one wicket but he got the prized scalp of dangerous Andre Russell leg before wicket for a golden duck. Obed McCoy bowled the final over of the match with KKR needing 11 runs with two wickets in hand but the left-arm pacer dismissed Sheldon Jackson and Umesh Yadav to guide Rajasthan to the fourth win of the season.
KKR’s next match will be against Gujarat Titans on April 23.
