And tonight, it was his night. He played a fantastic innings,\u201d said Powell after his team failed to defend 181 for four and remained without a win after four matches, including three at home.<\/p>\n<p>Asked what KKR bowlers could have done differently to check Mukul, Powell said, \u201cThey could have gone to a wide (ball) plan just as we went for the last ball, the last over. We could have gone to a wide plan, after we realised that he\u2019s hitting those short deliveries, maybe a few balls earlier&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen you are out there and the pressure is on and guys keep telling you or you have a plan, it then comes down to execution.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>On the fairness of Finn Allen\u2019s catch by Digvesh Rathi on the third-man boundary, Powell said, \u201cWe thought, as we\u2019ve seen in the IPLs, the umpires have gone upstairs for lesser things and that\u2019s not as close as that. Maybe it was a blunder on their part, but we\u2019re not going to say that is what cost us two points tonight.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"publish-time\" id=\"end-of-article\">Published on Apr 10, 2026<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/sportstar.thehindu.com\/cricket\/ipl\/rovman-powell-kkr-vs-lsg-ipl-2026-mukul-choudhary-knock-digvesh-rathi-catch-controversy-news\/article70846771.ece\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) all-rounder Rovman Powell said youngster Mukul Choudhary\u2019s sensational 27-ball 54 was the primary reason behind his team\u2019s three-wicket loss to Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) from a position of winning in the Indian Premier League (IPL) encounter at the Eden Gardens here on Thursday. \u201cIt\u2019s very disappointing.
