Angkrish Raghuvanshi, Sunil Narine and Andre Russell led a monstrous show with the bat for the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) as the two-time champions smashed their highest total in IPL history and fell just five runs short of the highest score, piled on by Sunrisers Hyderabad a week ago.
The 10th match of the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) season will see Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) and Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) lock horns at the Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. The game will be special for KKR spinner Sunil Narine. Here's why?
West Indies spinner Sunil Narine, who hasn't played international cricket for four years, has announced his international retirement. Narine, 35, played 122 matches for his national side across all formats after making his debut in 2011 but took the franchise cricket route after 2019.
Sunil Narine became the first-ever cricketer to leave the field as a result of a red card shown in a game of the ongoing CPL 2023.
Sunil Narine is set to reach India soon to link up with his teammates at KKR for IPL 2023.
West Indies skipper Kieron Pollard said they will resist the temptation of adding Sunil Narine to their T20 World Cup squad despite the spinner's sublime form in the ongoing IPL.
KKR captain Eoin Morgan says his team's four-wicket win over RCB in the IPL Eliminator looked easier due to Sunil Narine's outstanding individual effort.
Narine (4/21) sent RCB's big guns back in the dug-out as Virat Kohli, AB de Villiers and Glenn Maxwell had no answer to his turning deliveries.
Oval Invincibles batsman Sunil Narine smasjed 19 off 11 during match 16 of The Hundred against Welsh Fire in London. Oval Invincibles won the game by 6 wickets.
Pollard said that Narine is yet to have a complete preparation and confidence in his bowling action.
His exploits with the bat and ball had given KKR multiple options in the past but the West Indian was far from his best in 2020 and was also called for suspect action.
Narine incurred a forgettable IPL 2020 season where he failed to perform as an opener before he was dropped down the order.
Narine posted a photo of the baby on his Instagram handle.
KKR should release the likes of Sunil Narine, Pat Cummins, Eoin Morgan and Dinesh Karthik while letting 21-year-old Shubman Gill take over as the captain, said former India batsman Aakash Chopra.
KKR thrashed table-toppers Delhi Capitals in Abu Dhabi by a comprehensive margin of 59 runs to consolidate their chances of playoff qualification.
Sunil Narine tweaked his bowling action after being reported, as he makes a comeback to the XI after four games.
Batting at No.5 against the high-flying Delhi Capitals at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi, Narine scored his fourth IPL half-century and his first since 2018.
KKR requested for an official assessment of Narine's action from the IPL Suspect Bowling Action Committee, submitting action footage in slow motion with back and side angles.
KKR had faced their bogey team in the IPL 2020 opener in Abu Dhabi when Rohit Sharma's 54-ball 80 had guided the defending champions to a 49-run win.
The Kolkata Knight Riders have released a statement after Sunil Narine was reported for suspect bowling action after the match against Kings XI Punjab on October 10.
