Ajinkya Rahane Sets Record with 12 Ducks as KKR Opener

Ajinkya Rahane just can’t catch a break. The Kolkata Knight Riders captain has set a new IPL record with a staggering 12 ducks as an opener after falling for a golden duck against the Rajasthan Royals. This latest failure marks his second consecutive duck, and you’ve got to wonder how long KKR will stick with him at the top of the order.

While Rahane floundered, the KKR bowlers put on a show, limiting the Royals to a modest 155. Their bowling attack looked sharp, but it’s now up to the batting lineup to deliver the goods. Chasing 156 won’t be easy, especially if the top order continues to crumble like a biscuit.

With Rahane struggling, KKR has to rethink their strategy moving forward. Can they rally behind their bowlers and chase down this target, or will they crumble under pressure? Only time will tell, but fans will be on the edge of their seats as the chase unfolds.
