Ahead of Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) match against defending champions Mumbai Indians in Abu Dhabi on Thursday, head coach Brendon McCullum explained the gameplan to his team in a very unique way. Kolkata registered a commanding nine-wicket win over Royal Challengers Bangalore in their opening game of the UAE leg of IPL 2021 on Monday.
In a video shared by the franchise on social media, McCullum can be seen demonstrating the game plan through a game of pool. He picked up off-spinner Sunil Narine followed by fielding coach James Foster to play the game of pool. In the video, McCullum describes the pool table as a cricket field and breaking the bunch of balls as the toss. He then shares different insights as the game proceeds and co-relates it with the actual game situation.
