The highlight of the evening was AbRam, who displayed his bowling skills by surprising the in-form finisher Rinku with a perfectly executed wide yorker. AbRam, showing promise as a budding cricketer, relished the rare chance to challenge one of KKR’s key players. Rinku is considered one of the frontrunners for the T20 World Cup.
Fans were thrilled to witness the interaction between the father-son duo and players from both teams, highlighting the strong camaraderie within the KKR camp. Viral videos capturing AbRam bowling to Rinku Singh have circulated widely on social media, with many marveling at how quickly the young boy is growing.
“How time flies… AbRam bowling to Rinku Singh was never on my radar,” wrote one fan on X (formerly Twitter), while another commented, “Haha, cute SRK and his son AbRam.”
With two recent losses despite setting 200-plus totals, the Knight Riders are determined to regain momentum and secure a victory against the Capitals. As the iconic Eden Gardens gears up to host the highly anticipated IPL showdown, all eyes are on KKR to deliver a stellar performance and climb the ranks in the tournament.
