“It has been pretty tough the last two years, we didn’t qualify and there has been introspection and we worked on areas which needed to be worked on. [on Rana] He has been outstanding and it’s about the bowler understanding what his strengths are and when he does, it comes out beautifully on the ground.”

“Mitch coming into the team boosted the confidence of the other youngsters. He has been one of the best bowlers in world cricket and he has been in such situations before, it’s about understanding Indian conditions and once he did that, it is magic all over. They have been outstanding, spinners mature with age, both bowling in tandem has worked exceptionally for us.”

“He has brought a totally different dimension to our batting this year and it was Gautam who insisted that Sunny open and what Sunny did was outstanding,” KKR bowling coach Bharat Arun said.
