Blessing Malinganiza-Zimpapers Sports Hub
CHEVRONS star Blessing Muzarabani watched again from the sidelines in the Indian Premier League on Wednesday as Kolkata Knight Riders beat Mumbai Indians by four wickets.
The fast bowler has not seen as much action as he would have liked.
The Zimbabwe star has so far played two matches for KKR, managing to get four wickets in the process.
Going into the Mumbai Indians game, it had been speculated that Muzarabani could yet get another opportunity as Varun Chakravarthy was injured.
However, the star Indian spinner played with the pain.
Mumbai Indians managed to put 147 on the board for the loss of eight wickets.
KKR reached the target with seven balls to spare.
Mumbai’s Hardik Pandya said IPL has become more of a batters’ field and bowlers were now helpless.
“IPL is becoming batting dominated where bowlers are helpless … so I kind of enjoyed this pitch,” Hardik told Cricinfo.
He was suggesting Mumbai Indians were 20 short on their total, giving KKR a chance in the process.
The win kept alive Kolkata Knight Riders hopes of an unlikely playoff spot.
