Kolkata Knight Riders pacer Harshit Rana would think twice in matters related to BCCI now. The right-arm pacer, who was suspended for one match and fined 100 per cent match fees for the send-off he gave to Delhi Capitals batter Abishek Porel, has officially entered the once-bitten-twice-shy zone.
In a light-hearted conversation with KKR head coach Chandrakant Pandit, Rana was heard requesting his coach not to talk to BCCI about scheduling. The conversation took place inside a flight, which had to be diverted to Guwahati because of inclement weather in Kolkata.
The KKR team was returning from Lucknow, where they played against LSG and beat the hosts comfortably by 98 runs to rise to the top of the IPL 2024 points table on Sunday. The team was supposed to fly back to Kolkata on Monday evening, but KKR’s chartered flight had to be diverted to Guwahati due to heavy rains in the City of Joy.
The flight landed in Guwahati around 8:45 pm on Monday. It was around that time the conversation between Rana and Pandit took place where the player-coach duo were jokingly discussing having a practice session there and preponing their last league match against RR, which is scheduled in Guwahati on 19th of this month.
