KKR in the final of IPL 2024.
"Sunrisers played here a few nights ago but it's a different wicket, I would look to adjust with bat and ball, I think the powerplay in both the innings will shape the game, we were better on that." I am in Ahmedabad and hopefully the same happens here, but we know anything can happen in T20 cricket,” Starc said in a pre-game interaction with broadcasters.
When asked about KKR's preparation for the title match, Starc said, “Our (practice session) was disrupted by rain last night. “We all got ready to go and then the rain came, so hopefully that won't happen tonight.”
“It was good to get here early after our game in Ahmedabad, obviously we saw the second game (Qualifier 2) here last night which resulted in us playing Sunrisers, everyone is ready to go.,
After having a torrid time in IPL 2024, Starc has been among the wickets, especially with his three-fer against SRH in Qualifier 1, helping KKR ease into the final. So far, Starc has taken 1 wicket in 13 matches at an average of 28.66 and an economy rate of 11.07.
“I felt like I was getting back into T20 cricket after a while, so thankfully that happened and I got back into rhythm – the intensity and how quickly you have to adapt to the conditions or the team batting in T20. Is required. Goes about it."
“Our bowling unit has been absolutely fantastic, the top-order openers have also been amazing and we are just putting in the work as a group, trying to improve game by game and get ourselves to the final.It's been great personally to contribute to this and hopefully it will be another successful night tonight,” he said.
Middle-order batsman Rinku Singh feels that KKR's success in IPL 2024 is due to the positive atmosphere of the team. “The team atmosphere is great. Whenever we enter the dressing room, Ramandeep Singh plays Punjabi songs and it changes the atmosphere.
“Jiji (Gautam Gambhir) sir and Chandu (Chandrakant Pandit) sir have given us a lot of freedom.The thought process remains the same (for the final), play as per the match situation."
“Winning the senior trophy would be a dream come true. I will try to give my best. Hopefully we will win the match. We have also played a match here, so we know what the wicket will be like.I never look too far ahead, I always live in the present,” he concluded.
