KKR’s dominant performance throughout the competition culminated in a clinical victory in the summit clash.
West Indies all-rounder Andre Russell, a key player for KKR, celebrated the team’s triumph in style. After bundling out SRH for just 113 runs, Russell grooved to the beats of Shah Rukh Khan’s hit song “Lutt Putt Gaya” from the movie “Dunki.”
As Russell and Panday danced to the catchy tune, the celebration echoed the joy of victory and the magic of cricket. The video captured the essence of camaraderie and celebration, making it a memorable moment for KKR fans worldwide.
In the words of KKR skipper Shreyas Iyer, “We played like invincibles throughout the season. There’s so much to cherish right now. It is pleasing; the performance has been flawless throughout. We have been tremendous from game one; we stepped up today. All we demanded from ourselves was to back each other, whatever the situation was. The game could have gone either way”.
