Harshal Patel's Hilarious Celebration Highlights KKR's Struggle Against SRH
A Memorable Moment in the Match
During the match between Sunrisers Hyderabad and Kolkata Knight Riders at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi, a humorous celebration by Harshal Patel became a standout moment following Sunil Narine's dismissal.
Facing a daunting target of 279 runs, KKR's openers had to adopt an aggressive approach right from the start. Narine launched an attack against Pat Cummins, hitting two sixes, followed by a boundary off Jaydev Unadkat in the next over, and then another six and a four against Cummins in the third over.
Feeling confident, Narine struck another boundary against Unadkat in the fourth over. However, just as he seemed poised to dominate, Unadkat got his revenge. After conceding a four, the left-arm pacer bowled a slower off-cutter that completely outsmarted Narine.
Attempting to swing hard, Narine missed the ball entirely, which then crashed into his stumps, concluding his explosive innings.
Narine's quick score of 31 runs off 16 balls included three fours and three sixes. Following his dismissal, Harshal Patel's celebration brought some levity to the intense atmosphere as he raised his fingers above his head with a grin.
