In the 21st match of IPL 2022, the team of Punjab Kings was in front of Lucknow Super Giants. An exciting match was witnessed between these two teams on Saturday night. Where the Punjab team won by 2 wickets in the last over. Punjab batsman Shahrukh Khan played a big role in this victory. Shahrukh gave his team victory in the last over by showing his excellent batting. Now former Indian coach Anil Kumble has given a big statement regarding Shahrukh.
Kumble praised Shahrukh fiercely
Punjab chased down the target with three balls to spare. Sikandar Raza scored his maiden IPL half-century (57) while Shah Rukh Khan scored a blistering 23 not out in 10 balls. Shah Rukh was praised for his all-round performance for the Punjab Kings by former Indian captain Anil Kumble, who praised Shah Rukh for his fine fielding. Kumble said that the Punjab team was very impressive in fielding. His ground fielding was good and his catching was excellent. Especially Shah Rukh Khan’s fielding in the deep. It is not easy as you not only have to get under the ball but also worry about the boundary line.
Shahrukh was told the finisher
Kumble, who was earlier with Punjab Kings, praised Shahrukh’s batting performance, saying that he is a finisher. This is something he used to do while playing for Tamil Nadu and it was a pleasure to watch him finish matches here. In the last match also he played a cameo at the end of the innings but in this match it was a pressure situation. Punjab had to score 20 runs in the last two overs. He gave victory to Punjab by scoring an unbeaten 23 runs. This will give him confidence for the remaining part of the tournament.
