IPL 2017: Nathan Coulter-Nile’s shines again; guides KKR to victory
The statement that ‘a big player shows his class in a big match’ has been proved by Australian cricketer Nathan Coulter-Nile in elimination IPL match at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium on Tuesday.
Nile’s sensational bowling show of 3 wickets for 20 runs ousted defending champions SRH from IPL 10 in a rain-truncated match.

In a do or die game, the pacer rose to the occasion and destroyed the SRH’s middle-order. After ousting Kane Williamson 24, Vijay Shankar 22 and Chris Jordan 0, Nile set the stage for the victory of KKR.

KKR’s disciplined bowling restricted the mighty Hyderabad batting side on 128/7. The bowler had so far been very useful for his side as he bagged 14 wickets with economy 8.40 in 7 IPL matches. Nile has played 5 editions of IPL but played just 25 matches and picked 35 wickets.
However, the pacer has picked the rhythm at very crucial juncture. Now, the fate of qualifier match against Mumbai Indians will very much depend on jubilant Nile.
