During the post-match presentation, Kolkata Knight Riders skipper Shreyas Iyer also heaped praises on the stunning knock of Rinku. He said:
“Right from the powerplay when our bowlers conceded just 36 runs and took a wicket, it was just the start we needed. The way Rinku is maintaining his calm, playing only his second or third game, is outstanding. He is a great asset for the franchise for the future.”
