Notably, after his heated argument with Virat Kohli during a game against RCB at Ekana earlier this month fans have teased him a lot by chanting Kohli’s name. He was teased by his crowd in Lucknow during their last game against Mumbai Indians. However, Naveen didn’t take it away and asked the crowd to get louder.
KKR got a flying start in a do-or-die game
In the do-or-die game against Lucknow Super Giants KKR were asked to chase 177 runs in 20 overs. They got a flying start as both opener Jason Roy and Venkatesh Iyer added 61 runs in just 35 balls for the first wicket. Iyer in his innings scored 24 runs off 15 balls with the help of three boundaries and a six.
Meanwhile, Jason Roy in his amazing batting performance scored 45 runs off 28 balls with the help of seven boundaries and a six. Both were dismissed by Krishnappa Gowtham and Krunal Pandya respectively. Notably, KKR needs to chase this target in less than 17 overs to restrict LSG from finishing in the top 2 in the league stage.

This chant will haunt Naveen forever in his life.

He has messed with the wrong guy. Even though he is trying to stand upfront against Virat by putting up stories, but eventually the fandom of Virat will reign supreme. Every time he performs poorly he will be trolled badly and soon his confidence will perish forever.
