The 34-year-old Ishant (2/19 in 4 overs), who is well past his prime, got his first opportunity and used his oodles of experience to peg back KKR inside the ‘Bowling Powerplay’.
“I was just waiting for my chance. I wanted to win a game for the team whenever I got a chance,” said Ishan during the post-match presentation.
When quizzed if he had specific plans to a certain batter, he said, “Depends on what kind of plans you have. Matter of time when you want to execute your plans. There is no lucky charm in the team. We would want to win every game from here on, qualify and hopefully win the tournament.”
