After the win, SRK went to the dressing room of KKR to deliver a speech to further boost the morale of his players.
"There are days in our lives, in sports especially, when we don't deserve to lose. And there are days when we don't deserve to win, but days are like that. Today, we didn't deserve to lose, I think all of us played extremely well. We have to be very very proud of ourselves, please don't feel sad or down, feel as happy as we feel when we come to this changing room," SRK said in his speech.
"Maintain the high, we have great energy on the field. So please continue so. GG (Gautam Gambhir) you don't feel down. We would all be bouncing back, it's god's plan for today," he added.
SRK's words also brought a smile on the face of KKR's mentor Gautam Gambhir.
