Sorry Patriots showing leaves Emrit speechless
A short-handed Knight Riders, who were at the opposite end of the spectrum, winning their eighth game in a row, were led by a blistering 96 off just 63 ball from opener Lendl Simmons. The onslaught underpinned the team's sizable total of 174 for 4, which, based on current form, the Patriots were hardly ever likely to threaten. In the end, with only three batsmen making double figures, the team was restricted to 115 for 7.
I’m at a loss for words at the moment. I think we’ve seen why TKR is so dominant throughout the tournament and why we are where we are at the moment,” Emrit said following the match.
“We just couldn’t get anything right. They totally outplayed us in all departments. I think that’s the outcome of the game. It shows why they are on top,” he added.
In eight games so far the team has managed just one win and remains rooted to the foot of the table.
