KKR’s bowling changes were spot on: Sachin Tendulkar

TIL Desk Sports/ Legendary batsman Sachin Tendulkar hailed the leadership skills of Dinesh Karthik as he praised the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) skipper for making the right bowling changes at the right time against Rajasthan Royals in the Indian Premier League (IPL).

Tendulkar’s remarks came as KKR defeated Rajasthan Royals by 37 runs. While chasing 175, Rajasthan was restricted to 137/9 in the allotted twenty overs. At one stage during their chase, Rajasthan was reduced to 88/8 as KKR bowlers wreaked havoc at the Dubai International Stadium.

For KKR, Kamlesh Nagarkoti, Shivam Mavi, and Varun Chakravarthy took two wickets each. “Important knock by @RealShubmanGill who played some good shots. @Russell12A’s brief cameo & good finish by @Eoin16 got @KKRiders to a decent score. Terrific bowling performance as well. Bowling changes were spot on & the team balance looked good,” Tendulkar tweeted.
