Indian Premier League: Harshit Rana, Kolkata Knight Riders’ pacer from Delhi, will be an important cog in the team's pace battery and is looking forward to the upcoming Indian Premier League (IPL) as he will be sharing the dressing room with Australian superstar bowler Mitchell Starc.
Harshit will be going into the season with a lot of hope despite just recovering from an injury. He has had a good season in 2023 which earned him a call-up to the India camp, said he wants to work on himself on his return to IPL. “I had a tough time coping with the injury. Had to spend two and a half months away from the sport and injuries like these take a mental toll on you. Despite that, I kept thinking positively and kept telling myself that the more I work on myself, the more I’ll benefit once I make my return at the IPL,” Harshit was quoted as saying by KKR Knight Club.
Harshit said after a couple of tours with Team India and spending time in the Indian camp has caused some positive changes in himself. “After spending time in the Indian camp, I see a lot of positive changes within myself. You start to understand how one should work upon himself as a cricketer so that you make progress. I also learnt important lessons about training, diet, and much more. In fact, when I got injured in South Africa, Rahul Dravid sir came and spoke to me and asked me to work on some specific things and in the past two and half months, I’ve worked on those things. Most importantly, I’ve understood from the senior players the skill of continuously bettering yourself,” he said.
