Kolkata Knight Riders Relive Viral Moment with Andre Russell After IPL 2024 Triumph

Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) celebrated their IPL 2024 victory in style, recreating a viral moment with all-rounder Andre Russell. The incident, which occurred during the Bangladesh Premier League, saw Russell being asked a peculiar question by a presenter. The question, "Final match you perform. What happening?" became an instant hit on social media, leaving Russell amused.

In a video shared by KKR on Twitter, Russell was once again asked the same question, this time by his teammates Sherfane Rutherford and Sunil Narine. The moment brought a smile to Russell's face, as he recalled the hilarious interview.

On the field, KKR dominated the IPL 2024 final, defeating Sunrisers Hyderabad by 8 wickets. Venkatesh Iyer's half-century and a disciplined bowling performance from the pacers proved to be the difference.

KKR captain Shreyas Iyer expressed his delight at the victory, saying, "Absolutely comprehensive. This is what we demanded from the team and every individual. They stood up to the right occasion and the feeling is hard to express."

Iyer praised the team's consistency throughout the season, saying, "We played like invincibles throughout the season. There's so much to cherish right now. It is pleasing, the performance has been flawless throughout."

Mitchell Starc, who played a crucial role in the final, was also lauded by Iyer. "That's when all the big players stand up, right! It was a high-pressure game and he's been so good off the field. He's never shown any complacency in his work ethics. He stepped up to the right occasion," Iyer said.

Russell, who has been a key player for KKR over the years, expressed his joy at the team's success. "When I look at him, I know he can look at me. All the guys stepped up at the right time. Made it easier. It has been a flawless season," Russell said.

The IPL 2024 victory marks a significant milestone for KKR, who have now won the tournament three times. The team's success is a testament to their hard work, dedication, and team spirit.
