Harshit Rana was visibly frustrated after the SRH openers were giving the bowlers a hard time in the powerplay. When Harshit got the home team their first breakthrough in the form of Mayank Agarwal, he delivered a cheeky flying kiss towards the departing batter which was followed by a heated exchange of glances between the two players as well.
Childish Behaviour?
The 22-year-old pacer’s behaviour was debatable and wasn’t liked by one of the legends of Indian cricket Sunil Gavaskar. Gavaskar resented the action and said that the pacer should’ve just celebrated with his teammates and not get too carried away in the moment.
Andre Russell On Fire
Earlier, KKR batter Andre Russell showcased some fine power hitting which saw the Kolkata Knight Riders go into the dressing room with a mammoth 209-run target for the visitors. Russell’s 25-ball 64 left the SRH bowlers gasping for breath in the first innings.
