If I speak, there will be a ruckus … Ajinkya Rahane’s heart broken from the pitch of Eden Gardens, thus spill pain – Ajinkya Rahane disappointed with Lack of Help for Spinners after Second Defeat at home

New Delhi: Kolkata Knight Riders captain Ajinkya Rahane once again appeared disappointed with the nature of the Eden Gardens pitch. The KKR captain disappointed the spinners not getting help from the pitch after the second defeat on the home ground. However, when the controversial issue of ‘benefits of domestic situation’ was raised, Rahane made his words carefully and said that any of his comments could give birth to ‘Bawal’. The hosts were expected to help the spinners from the pitch, but the Lucknow Super Giant defeated the defending champion team by four runs on the batsmen’s favorable pitch. KKR captain Rahane said after the match, “First of all I make it clear that there was no help for the spinners.” Super Giants scored 238 runs for three wickets before KKR was stopped for seven wickets. Rahane’s decision to bowl first turned upside down as rival batsmen easily scored runs against KKR bowlers.

KKR to KKR in Eden Gardens this season

Ajinkya Rahane said, ‘He made the boundary very well, our bowlers also tried but (Nicholas) Puran and Mitchell Marsh batted very well. He redeemed his opportunities which proved to be very good for him. He said, “It was a great wicket, we all saw, about 500 runs on this wicket, it was difficult for the bowlers, but he took advantage of the circumstances and made the boundary very well.”

Digvesh Rathi and Ravi Bishnoi’s super giant spin pair conceded 80 runs in their eight overs but managed to take two important wickets. The spin pair of Sunil Naren and Varun Chakraborty of KKR, however, got no wickets and gave runs at the rate of more than nine runs per over. Asked about the benefits of domestic situation, Rahane said, ‘Look, there has been a lot of discussion about the wicket. So if I say something right now, there will be a ruckus.

Rahane has a dispute with Sujan Mukherjee

Rahane attacked curator Sujan Mukherjee indirectly, saying, ‘Those who are our curators have received a lot of publicity. I think they are happy with this promotion. You can write what you want to write about domestic benefits. If I have any concern, I will probably tell the IPL instead of speaking it here. ‘
