Umpires Inspect Bat Before Match!]]> https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/sunil-narine-caught-red-handed-umpires-inspect-bat-before-match/ https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/sunil-narine-caught-red-handed-umpires-inspect-bat-before-match/ Wed, 16 Apr 2025 05:27:45 GMT

Drama Begins Before the First Ball! Narine’s Bat Gets Special Attention

In a match for the ages during an IPL 2025 fixture on April 15, the Punjab Kings engineered one of the greatest upsets in tournament history by defending a record-low total of 111 against the perennially high-flying Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR). It was not all about the play on the field, though. A strange pre-match incident relating to Sunil Narine's bat check turned viral and served to add another layer of drama to an already dramatic evening.

As the batsmen prepared to pursue Punjab's humble total, Sunil Narine found himself involved in a routine bat-check by the umpires. The whole scenario, which was caught on camera, involved the officials examining Narine's bat meticulously. Social media viewers promptly converted the incident into a meme session, facetiously captioning it "Sunil Narayan ki chori pakdi gayi"—implying in jest that he may have been attempting to hide a favorable bat.

While the bat was declared legal and Narine stepped into the field, what ensued was much more surprising. Pursuing only 112 runs, KKR began well and were sailing at 71/3. But then suddenly came a dramatic collapse. KKR lost 7 wickets for a mere 24 runs, getting bowled out for 95 in 15.1 overs. Punjab's bowlers, particularly Yuzvendra Chahal (4/28) and Marco Jansen (3/17), bowled masterfully to write history

 

The match will be remembered not just for the lowest successful defense in IPL history, but also for its quirky moments such as Narine's bat inspection that provided a laugh to the fans before the shock.

Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) are preparing to take on Punjab Kings (PBKS) tomorrow (April 15) at Mullanpur Stadium. KKR and PBKS, both with 6 points, are currently in fifth and sixth place, respectively. KKR, with a slightly better net run rate, holds its spot over Punjab Kings in the IPL 2025 points table. Though PBKS played a game less than KKR— KKR with 6 points after playing 6, and PBKS with 6 points after playing 5. A win over the defending champion will take the Punjab-based team to a higher position on the ladder.

KKR have so far experienced a bumpy road with 3 defeats. To hoist the trophy in back-to-back seasons, they need to show their team bonding and a performance as a unit on the field. KKR, on their social media platforms, shared some moments from their practice session. A video with the caption "Gurbaz: Making of a Mystery Spinner" shows Afghanistan wicketkeeper-batter Rahmanullah Gurbaz teaming up with Sunil Narine and bowling in the net.

Narine started his cricket career as a mystery spinner. Later, he developed his batting skills, and now he is a regular opening batter for KKR. But his aura as a spinner still lives on. New generation players try to replicate the West Indian cricketer's bowling action, the same we can see in the video with Gurbaz.

Rahmanullah Gurbaz is waiting for his turn in the first XI

Afghanistan's star opener Rahmanullah Gurbaz has recently been seen honing his spin bowling skills in the nets, drawing inspiration from none other than Sunil Narine. Observing Narine’s unique grip and bowling action closely, Gurbaz decided to experiment with his own version of spin, adding a new dimension to his cricketing skillset. Although yet to make his first appearance in IPL 2025 for the Kolkata Knight Riders, the young batter is making the most of his time in training sessions.

Gurbaz has been a part of the KKR setup since 2023. That season marked his best IPL performance so far, where he amassed 227 runs across 11 innings. However, the following year saw limited opportunities, with the Afghan opener getting to play just two innings and scoring 62 runs. Across his IPL journey with KKR, Gurbaz has accumulated 289 runs from 13 innings—a promising record that he’ll look to build upon in the current season.

IPL 2025, Match 21: KKR vs LSG Dream11 Top Captains And Vice-captains

Top 3 Captain choices

Nicholas Pooran: Caribbean cricketer Nicholas Pooran has proven himself one of the most dangerous batters with his strong six-hitting abilities. He has scored 75, 70, 44, and 12 runs this season and also holds the record for most sixes in this IPL season with 16 sixes. 

Mitchell Marsh: In the ongoing IPL season, Australian cricketer Mitchell Marsh scored 72, 52, 0, and 60 runs, respectively. He is providing fiery starts with a strike rate of 160+. 

Varun Chakravarthy: Leg-spinner Varun Chakravarthy is a key name in the KKR squad, who is currently in dream form with the ball. He has taken six wickets in four matches this IPL season, including taking three wickets in their last game against SunRisers Hyderabad. 

Top 3 Vice-captain choices

Sunil Narine: Caribbean cricketer Sunil Narine is still fighting hard to find his form. In this IPL season, his best performance is a 44-run knock as an opener in the first match of the tournament. He has also picked up two wickets in three matches this season. 

Andre Russell: Another KKR all-rounder Andre Russell hasn't produced his fiery batting performance yet as he hasn't managed double-digit scores in three innings of this tournament. However, in the last two games, Russell picked up two wickets each. 

Shardul Thakur: While KKR's top-order batting is struggling, LSG pacer Shardul Thakur will have an important role with the new ball. He has already taken seven wickets in four matches in the IPL 2025, including picking up two wickets in his first over of their first two matches of the season.

Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), IPL 2025: A pure authoritative win for Kolkata Knight Riders at the Eden Gardens against Sunrisers Hyderabad. From batting to bowling, KKR dominated SRH with ease and resulted in a win by an 80-run margin. KKR put a standout 200 runs on the scoreboard, which proved enough to outclass the batting lineup, which has some batting powerhouses like Travis Head, Ishan Kishan, and Heinrich Klaasen. Despite this thumping victory, KKR team management should rethink their team lineup, as some of their players are suffering from inconsistency, which can prove fatal for the team later.

The opening pair

Quinton de Kock, a full-time opener, has already passed through his prime days. The 97 not out against Rajasthan Royals was a glimpse of his talent. But will he be able to maintain his form? So far, the answer is not satisfying. Last night against SRH, the South African keeper went back to the pavilion after scoring only 1. In total, he scored 103 runs in 4 games, supported by a 97* run knock.

The same story with the other opener, Sunil Narine, also. After scoring a 44 against Royal Challengers Bengaluru, Narine's bat remained cold. In 3 matches he got only 89 runs as a batsman.For a solid innings foundation, an in-form opening pair any day can prove useful.

Andre Russell

The big hitter from the West Indies is now 36 and away from his prime days. It's been a long time since the crowd witnessed a ruling innings by the Caribbean. In this season with Kolkata Knight Riders, Russell scored only 10 runs in 3 innings, and with the ball, he took 4 wickets in 2 wickets. KKR skipper Ajinkya Rahane likes to use Russell as an occasional bowler. Russell needs to rise again to provide something for the legacy he built throughout his career.

Sunil Narine's batting troubles continued as he was bowled early in Kolkata Knight Riders' (KKR) match against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in the 15th match of IPL 2025 at Eden Gardens, Kolkata.

Batting in the opening slot, Narine made 7 runs off 7 balls, including a six, before being bowled by a masterful ball from Mohammed Shami in the third over.

Sunil Narine Dismissed Early

Shami served a timely yorker outside off-stump on the third delivery of the over. Narine, in an attempt to play for room, stepped back and attempted to cut the ball to the off-side. But the ball hit an edge before his bat could land on the ground. Wicketkeeper Heinrich Klaasen reacted quickly, diving to the right to take a wonderful catch.

Although there was a definite edge, Narine seemed to be in a trance. The doubt came because his bat hit the ground around the same time as the ball hit the edge.

Although KKR lost initial momentum, they managed to post a decent score of 200/6 in 20 overs, giving their bowlers a good target to defend.

IPL 2025, Match 15: KKR vs SRH Dream11 Top Captains And Vice-captains

Top 3 Captain choices

Travis Head: Australian cricketer Travis Head is one of the most dangerous batters, who can change the game with his ability. Despite some challenges, Head has provided good starts for his team in the early IPL 2025 by scoring 67, 47, and 22 runs, respectively. 

Sunil Narine: Caribbean all-rounder Sunil Narine is a very important name for KKR, who plays an important role for his franchise with his effective bowling and powerplay-friendly opening batting. He scored 44 runs in the season opener but still needs to find his top form, which he can bring in the upcoming fixtures. 

Varun Chakravarthy: As KKR are returning to the Eden Gardens, Varun Chakravarthy can play an important role in the important match against SRH. 

Top 3 Vice-captain choices

Heinrich Klaasen: South African middle-order batter Heinrich Klaasen is a dangerous and consistent batter. He scored 34, 26, and 32 runs in the ongoing IPL 2025.

Quinton de Kock: Former South African cricketer Quinton de Kock has to play a very crucial role for the defending champions. Although he was dismissed twice in single digits in early IPL 2025, he also scored a match-winning 97 not out against Rajasthan Royals.

Pat Cummins: While SRH are struggling, captain Pat Cummins can inspire his team, which he does regularly. Apart from his effective pace bowling, Cummins can make a significant contribution with the bat as a cameo in the lower order.

Kolkata Knight Riders are ready to lock horns against the home team Mumbai Indians at the Wankhede Stadium. Sunil Narine's availability in this game is yet to be clear. KKR was victorious against Rajasthan Royals without the service of Narine. Moin Ali, who replaced the West Indian all-rounder, took a couple of wickets at an economy rate of only 5.75 in 4 overs. Narine was not so impressive in front of the multiple-time IPL-winning team Mumbai Indians.

KKR head coach Chandrakant Pandit has given a big update on Sunil Narine’s fitness ahead of their match against Mumbai Indians in IPL 2025. He confirmed that Narine is fully fit and ready to play.

Kolkata Knight Riders will face Mumbai Indians at Wankhede Stadium on Monday, March 31.
There were concerns about Narine’s availability after he missed the last game against Rajasthan Royals in Guwahati due to illness, with Moeen Ali replacing him.

But in good news for KKR, Narine was spotted training with the team on Saturday, March 29.
He was seen practicing big hits in the nets, signaling that he was ready to return. Coach Chandrakant Pandit later confirmed it, assuring that Narine is fit for the game.

"Sunil Narine is 100 percent fit and has fully recovered for the game against Mumbai Indians," Pandit said.
Sunil Narine is set to return to KKR’s playing XI for the match against Mumbai Indians, likely replacing Moeen Ali. Although Moeen bowled well in the last game, Narine’s comeback means he will take his spot in the lineup.
