The Indian Premier League of 2021 is all set to resume in the UAE. All the franchises will be seen practicing ahead of the tournament. At present the Kolkata Knight Riders are at the bottom half of the points table. Even then, Dinesh Karthik feels that the team will qualify for the playoffs.
The two-time former champions did not have a great run in the first phase of IPL 2021 as they could manage just wins from seven matches.
Dinesh Karthik feels that Kolkata Knight Riders must take one game at a time. Their aim should be winning most of their games.
He goes on to add that, “Last year when we were in UAE, we missed it (qualifying for playoffs) by a whisker. We won as many matches as the last team had won but still just missed it by a whisker. Two years on the trot, we have been fifth on the table. That’s something that still gnaws at me,”
Dinesh Karthik feels that the team is very positive. The players are coming to the field with an aggressive mindset. The coaches and support staff are instilling a positive attitude to the squad.
Well, best of luck to the team. They go against the Royal Challengers Bangalore on 20th September.
