Quinton de Kock – KKR’s Silent Assassin!|
Quinton de Kock, who gave KKR its first win of the season, became the “Player of the Match” today. After a brilliant innings of 97 runs in 61 balls against Rajasthan Royals, the South African wicketkeeper batsman reminded everyone that he is still a dangerous player!
3.6 Crore Chest Cheapest Player?
In the auction, KKR picked up De Kock for just 3.6 crores
Competition was tough with Phi Salt (435 runs last year) and Sunil Narin
Recent form was bad:
SA20 2025: 150 runs (10 matches)
Last IPL: 250 runs (11 matches for LSG)
But today I gave an answer to everyone!
Guwahati pitch Report
RR batsmen failed (151 all out)
De Kock understood the pitch is slow:
8 fours + 6 sixes – but every ball with perfect timing
False shorts almost zero!
De Kock’s Masterclass
1 Powerplay: Singles + occasional boundaries
2 Middle Overs: Spinners respected
3 Death Overs: When needed, acceleration
Post-Match Confession:
“I just understood the situation. Today it was a working man’s wicket – I had to grind it!”
Next Stop: Wankhede!
31 March: MI vs KKR
De Kock’s second home (he has already played for MI)
KKR fans’ hope: This form will continue!
