Gautam Gambhir Shares An Emotional Message For Fans Post Qualifier 2 Defeat Against Mumbai Indians

Kolkata Knight Riders and Mumbai Indians are the two teams which had won the IPL tournament for two times each. Both the teams had a terrific run in this year’s IPL season. As Rising Pune Supergiant defeated Mumbai Indians in the Qualifier-1, MI had to play the Qualifier-2 against KKR.

However, KKR run has come to an end with a defeat against MI in the Qualifier-2 at Bangalore. It was one of the lowest totals by KKR 107 all out in 18.5 overs. Despite the team has good batsmen, KKR couldn’t face Karn Sharma and Jasprit Bumrah.

KKR lost to MI

Well, Krunal’s 30-ball 45 and Karn Sharma’s 4-wicket haul helped MI record a facile 6-wicket win over KKR. Keeping veteran tweaker Harbhajan Singh on the bench, Karn vindicated his captain`s faith and picked up wickets comfortably. Thus, MI has set up a clash with RPS in the finals at Hyderabad.

25/3 was the total scored by KKR in the first six overs which was the lowest power play score for the team. And finally, they were all out for 107. Chasing down 108, even MI batsmen looked shaky to balance their wickets. However, Krunal joined hands with skipper Rohit Sharma for a 54-run fourth wicket stand to steady Mumbai`s ship after early hiccups which left them on 34/3 at one stage.

So, the KKR skipper has come out to thank fans for their support. A devastated Gambhir took to Twitter to express his disappointment at the result.

It was a good journey for KKR throughout this season’s IPL. The 35-year-old KKR skipper wished luck to both Mumbai and Pune, hoping that the best would win.

“We made that kind of mistakes and a bad game like today haunted us bad. Just wish both Mumbai and Pune, may the best team win.”
