On Tuesday, the 32-year-old posted a picture featuring his wife and himself in an Instagram story to share the news of them expecting a baby boy soon. The couple had tied the knot a few years back and are the proud owners of a clothing line called 74 merchandise – named after Sunil’s jersey number ’74.

Sunil Narine’s stint in IPL 2020

The veteran all-rounder was recently involved with franchise Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in the just-concluded 13th edition of the Indian Premier League. Narine is one of the longest-serving members of the Knight Riders family. He has represented Kolkata Knight Riders in the IPL since 2012, less than a year after breaking into the international circuit for the Windies Team.

Narine experienced a torrid run in the league as he could score only 121 runs at an average of 13.44 and scalped 5 wickets at an economy rate of 7.94 in 10 matches. During a game against Kings XI Punjab (KXIP), Sunil was also reported for having an illegal bowling action and was issued a warning regarding the same.

However, the all-rounder warmed the bench for a few days and improved his action to finally get cleared by the IPL’s suspect bowling action committee towards the fag end of the league.

As far as Kolkata Knight Riders are concerned, they failed to make it to the playoffs and finished at the fifth position on the points table with 14 points in 14 games in their bag. Though Royal Challengers Bangalore and Sunrisers Hyderabad also had the same number of points, they got qualified for the second stage of the league due to a better run-rate.
