After guiding Kolkata Knight Riders to their third IPL title on Sunday, captain Shreyas Iyer said his side “played like invincibles” the whole season.
The Knight Riders lorded over Sunrisers Hyderabad in the IPL final, winning the lopsided title clash by eight wickets at the MA Chidambaram Stadium.
“Absolutely comprehensive (the win). We played like invincibles throughout the season. There’s so much to cherish right now. This is what we demanded from the team and every individual,” Shreyas said during the post-match presentation.
“They stood up to the right occasion and the feeling is hard to express. It is pleasing, the performance has been flawless throughout. I am running out of words right now,” he added.
After the IPL, Shreyas will have to wait for more game time as he is not part of India’s squad for the T20 World Cup.
