KKR Have A Real Shot At The Playoffs; Must Not Take MI Lightly: Kumble
Kolkata Knight Riders: Former India captain Anil Kumble believes three-time winners Kolkata Knight Riders do have a ‘real shot’ of making it to the IPL 2026 playoffs but cautioned that they must not commit the mistake of taking five-time champions Mumbai Indians lightly in their upcoming clash to be played at the Eden Gardens on Wednesday evening.
KKR’s second half resurgence has been driven by good bowling performances, as well as Rinku Singh and Finn Allen playing blistering knocks. "KKR have been brilliant in their last few games. The momentum is firmly with them. Varun Chakaravarthy, who had a poor start to the season, is suddenly back in rhythm. Finn Allen is batting superbly.
“It's been a remarkable turnaround, and Rinku Singh has played a key role in it. When KKR were struggling, it was Rinku's innings that changed their fortunes. With Sunil Narine and others also firing, there are plenty of positives for KKR right now.
