IPL 2026: Southee Lauds Rinku’s ‘cricket Smarts,’ Dubs Narine ‘unbelievable’ After KKR’s Thriller Win
Kolkata Knight Riders: Tim Southee lauded Rinku Singh’s composure and Sunil Narine’s match-winning Super Over effort after Kolkata Knight Riders pulled off a dramatic win over Lucknow Super Giants in their recently concluded IPL 2026 clash at the Ekana Cricket Stadium.
KKR had to claw their way back into the contest after slipping into early trouble, before Rinku’s unbeaten 83, capped by four sixes in the final over, lifted them to 155, a total that eventually proved just enough to force a tie.
Reflecting on the team’s performance, Southee credited the collective resilience shown by the side, particularly after a shaky start with the bat and emphasised that it was not just the runs, but the timing and awareness of Rinku’s knock that made the difference in a high-pressure situation.
