He’s coming off a lot of confidence through good performances this season, and there’s no doubt whatsoever, he’s been the player of the season up to this point,” Smith said on JioCinema

After Sunil Narine played a vital hand in KKR’s 98-run win over Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) here to go on top of the table for IPL 2024, former South Africa captain Graeme Smith hailed the all-rounder as the player of the season.
On Sunday night, Narine hammered 81 off just 39 deliveries as KKR made an imposing 235-6. He then took 1-22 in his four overs as LSG were bowled out for 137. “Whatever plan Lucknow had coming into this game, it didn’t show. They bowled length, half-volleys, and Narine was able to put them all around the ground. Once he gets momentum in his innings and he settles, he’s so dangerous. He’s coming off a lot of confidence through good performances this season, and there’s no doubt whatsoever, he’s been the player of the season up to this point,” Smith said on JioCinema.
