IPL 2026: It Comes Down To Hard Work And A Lot Of Time Spent In The Nets, Says Narine
Kolkata Knight Riders: Kolkata Knight Riders’ spinners once again dictated terms as the three‑time champions restricted Delhi Capitals to 142/8 in their IPL 2026 clash at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Friday, with veteran off-spinner Sunil Narine saying that the superlative performance is down to the value of hard work and preparation in the nets.
On a dry pitch with cracks opening up, DC threatened to post a big total through Pathum Nissanka’s fluent 29‑ball fifty. But KKR’s spin trio of Narine, Anukul Roy, and Varun Chakravarthy applied the choke to derail DC and restrict them to 142/8.
“I think it comes down to hard work and a lot of time spent in the nets. We have a very strong bowling group; the seamers and the spinners work together to contain the opposition in the middle overs. I think if you allow the spinners to dictate terms without showing enough intent, it makes our job much easier,” said Narine in a mid-innings chat with the broadcasters.
