Kolkata Knight Riders captain Eoin Morgan gave credit to coach Brendon McCullum for inculcating the right ethos and mindset among the players that has helped them keep their nerves in difficult conditions and register a three-wicket win against Delhi Capitals on Tuesday. The win kept alive KKr`s chances of reaching the knockout stage.
Morgan, who chose to bowl first after winning the toss, was justified as his bowlers came up with a clinical performance on a sluggish pitch under scorching conditions in the middle as they restricted Delhi Capitals to 127/9. Kolkata Knight Riders survived a few anxious moments before reaching 130/7 and win by three wickets.
