'Krunal Is A Street Fighter Who Just Wouldn’t Go Down': Boucher
Former South Africa: Former South Africa wicketkeeper-batter Mark Boucher showered praise on Krunal Pandya after the all-rounder’s gritty match-winning knock guided Royal Challengers Bengaluru to a dramatic two-wicket win over Mumbai Indians in their recent IPL 2026 clash.
On a difficult Raipur surface where stroke-making remained challenging throughout the evening, Krunal anchored RCB’s tense chase with a fighting 73 while wickets kept falling regularly at the other end. Battling cramps in the latter half of his innings, the left-hander combined resilience with calculated aggression to keep RCB alive before Bhuvneshwar Kumar completed the tense chase with a six in the final over.
Reflecting on the innings, Boucher described Krunal as the perfect player for difficult low-scoring contests.
