KKR Sends Message to BCCI with Flying Kiss Celebration After IPL 2024 Victory
KKR fast bowler was handed one match ban for flying kiss celebration in IPL 2024.
The Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) emerged victorious in the IPL 2024 final, defeating Sunrisers Hyderabad by eight wickets at MA Chidambaram Stadium. However, their post-victory celebration has become the talk of the town.
The entire Kolkata Knight Riders team took to the podium, performing the “flying kiss” celebration – a gesture that earlier landed their young pacer Harshit Rana in hot water. Rana was fined and banned for a match during the season for the same celebration.
This move by the KKR team has sparked speculation of a deliberate act to mock the BCCI’s disciplinary action against Rana. Some believe the BCCI was overly harsh on Rana, considering the prevalence of animated wicket-taking celebrations in cricket.
