Kolkata: Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) vice-captain Suryakumar Yadav yesterday said the two-time champions will go all out this time to add a third star on the jersey by bringing the Indian Premier League (IPL) trophy home.
The winners of the IPL in 2012 and 2014, KKR lost to eventual champions Sunrisers Hyderabad in the eliminator last year by 22 runs. Yadav managed just eight in that game as the Knights failed to chase down 162 posted by David Warner and co. "There is not point thinking about last year. We have moved on and are thinking about this season," said Yadav, who played a match-winning knock of 60 against Rising Pune Supergiant in the last edition.
"We have two stars on our shirt and hopefully will add a third giving you all reason to celebrate," the 26-year-old Mumbai lad added.
KKR will take on Gujarat Lions on April 7 in Rajkot.
