Actually, in IPL 2024, there was no experienced bowler other than Mitchell Starc in the KKR team. In such a situation, the team needed another bowler other than Starc in the death overs who could come there and bowl well. In such a situation, Harshit bowled well in the last overs and made his team the champion. He played a total of 12 matches this season and took 19 wickets and with this he became the second highest wicket-taker for Kolkata this season. After the brilliant performance, he has given a big statement during a conversation with the Indian Express.

He said, “I want the Indian jersey. It does not matter whether I get a T20, ODI or Test match jersey.”

Let us tell you that during a match played against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) at Eden Gardens, he gave a flying kiss to Hyderabad opener Mayank Agarwal after getting him out. After this, he gave a flying kiss to Agarwal and it was considered a code of conduct. Apart from this, he also celebrated in a similar way after getting Delhi Capitals player Abhishek Porel out, due to which he was banned for one match. After receiving such a punishment, he was asked whether he would celebrate like this in the future? To this, the young fast bowler gave an interesting answer.

Rana said, “There is no question. Next time I will try to ensure in future that I do not use it as a farewell against any player. This is how I behave and I have a lot of fun outside the field. In that match Porel scored 16 runs in my first over. If sixes are hit then the ego will be hurt, I will not smile after that. In the next over I took his wicket and celebrated but after this I was banned.”
