sourav ganguly: IPL 2021: Wanted to copy Sourav Ganguly’s batting, says Venkatesh Iyer | Cricket News – Times of India
The commanding seven-wicket win put the Eoin Morgan-led side into the top-four of the points table.
The 26-year-old Madhya Pradesh player revealed his secret love for KKR long before he appeared on the cricketing horizon because of Sourav Ganguly.
“KKR was the first franchise that I wanted to be a part of only because dada (Sourav Ganguly) was the captain initially,” Iyer told teammate Rahul Tripathi in a video posted on the tournament website.
He even pointed out that the former India skipper has changed his batting completely.
“Dada has played a huge role in my batting, indirectly. I used to bat right-handed when I was very young but I wanted to exactly replicate dada…watching him the way he hit sixes, the way he batted, the way he bowled,” he added.
