- 23:53 (IST)IPL 2024 Final Live: KKR coach Bharat Arun on team's success"I think it was pretty tough, the last two years. It was touch and go - we didn't qualify. It needed a lot of introspection and now we can savour this moment. He (Harshit Rana) has been outstanding. It's about backing your strengths. I think Mitch (Mitchell Starc) coming into the team boosted the confidence of other youngsters in the side. He is probably the best bowler in the world. Once he understood the Indian conditions, he was excellent. Spinners mature with age, and with Sunny (Sunil Narine) and Varun (Chakaravarthy) bowling in tandem, it was superb. He (Narine) brought a totally different dimension to our batting. It was Gautam (Gambhir) who insisted that he opened and it paid dividends. It's a great night and now it's time to celebrate," said KKR bowling coach Bharat Arun.
