IPL 2020: KKR Mentor David Hussey Reckons Sunil Narine As Dinesh Karthik’s Trump Card
Sep 12, 2020 at 5:15 PM
Kolkata Knight Rider (KKR) mentor David Hussey has highly spoken about their team’s spinner Sunil Narine. He said that they are fortunate to have the Windies in their squad. The former cricketer even labeled Nairne as the best T20 bowler in the cricket world.
Sunil Nairne plays for KKR since 2012 and has so far played 110 matches, picking 122 wickets. Hussey believes that Nairne will be most difficult for batsmen to tackle in the IPL 2020 in the UAE where the pitches favour the spinners.
“Narine arguably is the best T20 bowler in the world. In any condition, he is one of the best players to have. Fortunately, he is at KKR, and he’ll be at his most difficult self to play and handle.
Dinesh Karthik will throw the ball to Sunil Narine at a tough situation: David Hussey
Hussey said that Sunil Narine will be the go-to bowler for the KKR captain Dinesh Karthik in the crunch situation during the matches. He is confident that the spinner will help them to snatch the victory from the jaw of defeat.
“He will be one of the bowlers captain DK will throw the ball to whenever the opposition has the momentum. I’m sure Sunil Narine will win more often than not, those close battles,” David Hussey told PTI.
Sunil Narine has amazed everyone with his bowling skills in the recently concluded Caribbean Premier League (CPL). He scalped 6 wickets from 5 matches at an economy of 4.55 for the CPL 2020 champions Trinbago Knight Riders.
In the upcoming edition, the West Indies spinner would surely be the difficult player to tackle because of his current form. Also, his new tactic to hide the ball during the run-up would make it difficult for the batsman to read him.
