IPL 2018, KKR vs CSK: Hits and Misses

#3 Hit: Sunil Narine

Sunil Narine was excellent with both bat and ball

Sunil Narine has always been a big part of KKR right from the time he was picked in 2012. In this season, he was excellent in the first few games where he took seven wickets in the first four games. He also smashed a 17-ball 50 in the first game against RCB.

However, he hasn’t been at his best in the last few games and has taken just 1 wicket in the last four games.

In fact, he didn’t pick a single wicket in the last two games and also conceded more than 35 runs in both outings.

But the West Indian mystery spinner came back strongly as he took 2/20. He came into bowl in the fourth over of the innings and gave away just five runs, despite conceding a boundary. He then came in the 11th over to dismiss the dangerous Watson.

And then in his last two overs, he just conceded eight runs and also picked up the wicket the in-form Rayudu. After a couple of disappointing outings, Narine was back in form with the ball.

With the bat, Narine once again gave KKR a fast start as he scored 20-ball 32 which including four fours and two sixes.
