For years, he has lived with the ‘Lord’ tag – a combination of affection and irony for someone who seems to take wickets at unexpected moments. However, a closer introspection reveals a method to his success. On Sunday, after Trent Boult, Hardik Pandya and Jasprit Bumrah had failed to make early inroads, Thakur was introduced for the final over of Powerplay, with KKR flying at 68/0.

The New Zealander was drawn early into a powerful shovel, expecting pace on the ball. But there was none. The …
