IPL 2026: Fielding Gives You Confidence To Perform In Both Batting And Bowling, Says Anukul
Kolkata Knight Riders: Kolkata Knight Riders spin-bowling all‑rounder Anukul Roy has said the role of fielding in boosting confidence across both batting and bowling has been huge, as the three-time champions aim to keep themselves alive in the race to playoffs in IPL 2026.
Roy’s good time in IPL 2026 continued when he took out Pathum Nissanka (50) and Tristan Stubbs (2) in the same over, while taking a brilliant catch of captain Axar Patel to play a vital hand in KKR getting their fourth straight win with an eight-wicket victory over Delhi Capitals last week.
“Fielding gives you confidence to perform, both in batting and bowling. If the fielding is good, you get a different kind of confidence from within while bowling. So for me, it is extremely important and really helps my performance,” Roy said in a pre-game chat with the broadcasters, ahead of their clash against Royal Challengers Bengaluru.
