IPL 2025: Credit For The Win Goes To Krunal And Suyash, Says RCB Captain Patidar
After Royal Challengers Bengaluru: After Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) began their Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 campaign with a seven-wicket win over defending champions Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), skipper Rajat Patidar credited spinners Krunal Pandya and Suyash Sharma for setting the base for an emphatic victory.
With the old ball gripping at the Eden Gardens, Krunal and Suyash, despite being hit for big runs initially, ran through KKR’s famed middle-order, ensuring that they could only make 174/8, despite a score of 230+ being a possibility. While Suyash had 1-47, Krunal finished with incredible figures of 3-29.
“There was pressure, but it was a good day for me. If we keep winning like this, it will be a good day. It was pretty clear for me - I don't mind Suyash giving runs, he was our main wicket-taking bowler, so I backed him. All credit goes to both the bowlers (Krunal and Suyash), from over 13, they showed courage and determination. The mindset of taking wickets was really amazing.”
