Bayern Munich”s talismanic striker Harry Kane poured in his wishes for league round table topper Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) ahead of their Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 clash against SunRisers Hyderabad at the Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad on Tuesday.
Kane, on behalf of the German football giants, sent a video to KKR ahead of their IPL 2024 playoffs clash, bidding for a third title.
“Hey Kolkata Knight Riders, a great start to the season. Wishing you the very best for the remainder of the season. Sending our support from FC Bayern Munich,” the England captain said in the video shared by KKR on their social media accounts.

However, the fans who follow both cricket and football believe that the wishes from Kane will be a curse on KKR, giving SRH an edge over them.
“Ok. Clearly someone in KKR camp , who is responsible for such decisions, doesn’t know the impact Harry Kane has on winning titles,” one of the fans commented.
“Oh noooo !!! Out of all players from around the World, KKR chose Harry Kane for good wishes !!! Why ??? Harry Kane has an uncanny ability to remain trophyless even in Bayern Munich !!! Gautam Gambhir won more trophies in his life than Harry Kane,” another fan said.
“KKR is global, we are massive 🔥🔥 And Harry Kane is breaking his trophy curse with us 😉,” a third fan commented.
KKR became the first team to qualify for the IPL 2024 playoffs and topped the league stage with 20 points in 14 matches after nine wins and three losses.
