KKR's Flight Diverted Twice, Players Spend Night in Varanasi

Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) faced a challenging journey back to Kolkata after their emphatic victory over Lucknow Super Giants in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024. Their flight from Lucknow was initially diverted to Guwahati due to inclement weather in Kolkata. However, after a failed attempt to land in Kolkata, the flight was diverted again, this time to Varanasi.

The players were forced to spend the night in a hotel in Varanasi, but the unexpected delay turned out to be a blessing in disguise. The squad seized the opportunity to visit the revered Kashi Vishwanath temple, a sacred pilgrimage site for Hindus.

The ordeal was documented by KKR in a vlog, which captured the players' experiences during the unexpected detour. The vlog showcased the team's resilience and camaraderie as they navigated the challenges of the delayed flight.

KKR's victory over Lucknow Super Giants was a significant one, propelling them to the top of the IPL standings. The team's impressive performance in the tournament has them well-positioned for a berth in the playoffs.

Despite the flight delay, KKR's spirits remained high. The players expressed their gratitude for the support of their fans and vowed to continue their strong performance in the remaining matches of the IPL season.
