The mantra is to move on, but Kolkata Knight Riders may just tell you that’s easier said than done. For the Knights, who take on table-toppers Gujarat Titans at the Eden Gardens on Monday, last week’s meltdown in Mullanpur will have dented their confidence. The inability to get past a low target wouldn’t have sounded the alarm had it not been accompanied by an utter lack of match awareness by their batsmen.

Having shown that shortcoming earlier as well, last Tuesday’s loss to Punjab Kings makes it more than just one bad day in the office. Carl Crowe, KKR’s spin bowling coach, however, thinks otherwise. “It’s important not to get too high or too low with wins or losses,” he proffered on Sunday, adding that there was no need to “overanalyse”.
