Kolkata Knight Riders’ player Sunil Narine operated in top gear against Delhi Capitals in the 16th match of IPL 2024 in Visakhapatnam. He dominated the proceedings with the bat as an opener by scoring a quickfire 85 off 39 balls, laced with seven fours and as many sixes at a strike rate of 217.95. Narine provided a blistering start to the game, which gave a truckload of confidence for the rest of the batsmen to score runs at a rate of knots.
In the end, KKR posted 272/7 in their quota of 20 overs, going past RCB’s total of 263 to register the second-highest total in IPL history. Case in point, Sunil Narine made the headlines after he trolled RCB’s bowling line-up by sharing a meme directed to RCB on his official Instagram handle. Ever since he posted it on his Instagram story, fans have taken the screenshots and made it viral on the internet.

The KKR’s bowling all-rounder who came across a meme featuring a picture of Sunil Narine along with the caption, “I love to score against RCB because they have a weak bowling line-up” Although Narine doesn’t know Hindi, he must have surely asked his teammates to get a clarity of the meme before posting it on social media because it is quite obvious that nobody posts a story without even understanding the context.
