Shah Rukh Khan Picks Up Fallen KKR Flags During IPL 2024 Match Against LSG, Video Goes Viral- WATCH
KKR vs LSG, IPL 2024: Shah Rukh Khan's act of picking up the fallen KKR team flags was captured in a video which has gone viral on social media.
Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) is among the franchises that have taken part in every edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) since its inaugural edition in 2008. The Shah Rukh Khan co-owned team has been able to clinch the championship twice-once in 2012 and the other time in 2014. However, they have not been able to get hold of the trophy even once in the last 10 years. This year though the team has started off like a champion side.
With Shreyas Iyer at the helm of affairs this season, the side has played five matches and have managed to register four wins. Even in their most recent encounter against the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata, the home team managed to register a dominant win by 8 wickets with 26 balls remaining. However, one of the major talking points of the match other than KKR's clinical on-field performance was Shah Rukh Khan's gesture of picking up fallen team flags during the contest
