IPL 2021: MBA aspirant and KKR star Venkatesh Iyer reveals Brendon McCullum’s contribution in his success
Zee News
KKR opener Venkatesh Iyer took the second half of the IPL by storm when he hit an unbeaten 41 off just 27 balls against Royal Challengers Bangalore in KKR’s previous game.
Kolkata Knight Riders batsman Venkatesh Iyer says there is no extra pressure when batting in front of head coach Brendon McCullum as the latter allows the players to be their natural self and play the brand of cricket that makes the boys comfortable.
“It is always good to see McCullum, and I am really excited to bat as he’s going to watch. There is no such pressure when he is right behind the nets. He is not a coach that puts a lot of pressure on us. He allows us to be what we are, and play the cricket that gives us maximum satisfaction. So I think that’s good for players like us,” Iyer said in a video posted by KKR on their Twitter handle.
