This tweet clearly sensed that Shah Rukh Khan, was saddened by the lack of heart shown by KKR bowlers in the loss. He said, “Wonderful play by @RealShubmanGill & @Russell12A yet again. Losing is ok but today we kind of lacked heart, especially bowling, that’s sad. Only positive out of this game was that our Dada @SGanguly99 was at Eden on the winning side. Congrats @DelhiCapitals.”  We all know that, Sourav Ganguly, has held various roles in the past with the Kolkata franchise including being the captain.

Yesterday's match was Delhi Capitals first win against KKR at Eden Gardens after 2012 where Shikhar Dhawan played a match-winning knock of 63-ball 97 for his team. While, Rishabh Pant was the second highest run scorer as he scored 46 off 31 balls. Delhi Capitals won Kolkata Knight Riders by 7 wickets at Eden Gardens yesterday.

Kolkata will play Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in their next match at Eden Gardens on April 14. Kolkata is currently sitting at number two on the points table and defending champions Chennai at number one.

Wonderful play by @RealShubmanGill & @Russell12A yet again. Losing is ok but today we kind of lacked heart, especially bowling, that’s sad. Only positive out of this game was that our Dada @SGanguly99 was at Eden on the winning side. Congrats @DelhiCapitals
