“We were only losing and when you keep on losing you get used to that. So it is really strange that we are winning,” said Shah Rukh.
KKR, which is currently at second place in the points table, had fared badly in the earlier three editions. It is the only franchise which failed to make it to the semifinal even once between 2008 and 2010.
Shah Rukh was asked how difficult it was to be in the city and cope with the emotions triggered by Sourav Ganguly’s exclusion from the team after the Kolkata boy was an integral part of KKR in the previous seasons.
“We respect the emotions. We all love Sourav. But as the son of India I also belong to every city and Kolkata will also love me for that,” he replied.
