KKR ke haathon se phisli jeet – batting order ka experiment bana badi galti|

Kabhi kabhi aachi captaincy aur strong intent bhi kaafi nahi hoti, agar galat waqt e galat decision le liya jaye – aur Kolkata Knight Riders ne Tuesday ke match mein wohi kiya. 239 ka chase unke haath mein tha par ek batting order blunder ne sab kuch bigaad diya.

Rinku aur Russell ko late bhejna – badi bhool?

KKR ne Ramandeep Singh aur Angkrish Raghuvanshi ko Russell aur rinku ke pehle bhej diya, jab match tight tha.

Result?

Ramandeep: 2 balls mein kuch nahi kar paye

Raghuvanshi: 4 balls waste karke out hog aye

Aur jab tak Rinku Singh aaya, equation ho chuki thi 19 runs in 3 balls. Unhone last ball pe ek six maara par match sirf 4 runs se haath se nikal gaya.

Rinku ne Diya tha hope, but waqt nahi tha

Rinku ne kuch singles lene se mana kiya 19^th over mein – strategy thi ki who khud hi boundary maarenge. Par jab tak who full flow mein aaye, bahut late ho chuka tha. Even Andre Russell ne ek badi six se shuruaat ki, lekin agle hi shot mein out hog aye. Agar dono pehle aaye hote, game ka direction kuch aur ho sakta tha.

KKR ke past se kuch nahi seekha gaya?

Yeh pehli baar nahi hai jab KKR ne Rinku aur Russell ko late bheja ho. Pichhle season mein bhi in dono ke batting order pe debate hoti rahi. Aur is match ke baad lagta hai team management ne abhi bhi lesson nahi seekha. Ajinkya Rahane ne post match conference mein decision ka support kiya: “Ramandeep quality player hai.. Agar who click karte, toh koi question nahi poochta.” Fair point, but “agar” cricket mein result nahi deta. Risk leke aise moment pe experiment karna team ko mehenga pad gaya.

Match ke key moments:

Narine aur Rahane ne strong start diya.

Venkatesh Iyer ne beech mein momentum banaya.

Par 15^th over se KKR ka flow toot gaya, jab Raghuvanshi ko bhej diya gaya.

Avesh khan aur Ravi Bishoni bhi rinku se dar rahe the – par tab tak match nikal chuka tha.

Playoffs se ehle pressure badh gaya

Agar KKR aise hi confusing decisions lete rahe, toh playoffs ka sapna mushkil ho sakta hai. Fans ka frustration clearly dikh raha hai, aur team management ko answers dene padenge.
