Despite a modest total of 192, Gaikwad strategically deployed Noor Ahmad, whose spell of 3/21 dismantled KKR’s batting lineup. His calculated bowling changes turned the game, restricting KKR to 160/7 and sealing a 32-run victory. While Noor earned Player of the Match, Gaikwad’s leadership stood out as the defining factor, handing KKR their fourth defeat in five matches—marking their worst-ever start in IPL history.
