KKR Chandrakantang Pandit buscando un equipo para “ignorar el” ruido “sobre Dinni

Kolkata Knight Riders coach Chandrakant Pandit has backed his players to block the noise that is expected for what might be MS Dhoni’s final IPL game at the Eden Gardens. The defending champions will take on the five-time champions in what is a must-win for them in order to keep their hopes of qualifying for the IPL 2025 playoffs alive. Dhoni enjoys tremendous fanfare across venues in India and Kolkata is no exception.

KKR can shut out noise over CSK, Dhoni: Pandit

Speaking at the pre-match press conference, the KKR coach claimed that every player was focused on their own game and would be unperturbed by the “noise.” He said that the noise did not matter to him, adding that he was confident that the KKR players would blissfully ignore it and focus on the game instead.

“It was the same case with me when people used to tell me so much noise around and how you can focus. But sometimes we just ignore that noise automatically. So, obviously when you are focused on the game, it does not matter so much if you ask me,” the KKR coach said.

Will Dhoni play vs KKR?

Dhoni reportedly skipped a couple of training sessions ahead of the game against KKR. This fuelled speculations over his availability for the match. However, CSK bowling coach Eric Simmons clarified that Dhoni will take the field on Wednesday.

“Yes, he’s expected to play tomorrow. With regards to MS, he knows his situation very well. He knows where he is. In terms of his preparations, he always works very hard at the beginning of a tournament and then allows himself to taper off because he gets himself in a space where he’s ready. So no issues, he just knows when he is prepared and when he’s not,” the CSK coach said.
