[Watch] Harshit Rana stares at Mayank Agarwal after taking his wicket to complete revenge in KKR vs SRH IPL 2024 clash

Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) pacer Harshit Rana stared at SunRisers Hyderabad opener Mayank Agarwal after taking his wicket in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 encounter at Eden Gardens on Saturday.

Mayank departed for 32 runs off 21 balls, including one six and four boundaries. He shared a 60-run stand with Abhishek Sharma for the opening wicket to set up a good platform for the run chase.

The incident took place during the sixth over of SRH’s run chase. Harshit Rana bowled a bouncer and Mayank went ahead with his pull shot. The right-handed batter, however, wasn’t in complete control of the shot and picked out the fielder at deep backward square leg, where Rinku Singh completed the catch.

Following the dismissal, Rana stared and blew a kiss to Mayank, who also responded with a stare.
