Shahrukh takes the blame for KKR's defeat

Bollywood actor Shahrukh Khan must be regretting like never before for not standing by the side of his IPL team Kolkata Knight Riders when they needed him the most. He kept away from their crucial match against the Chennai Super Kings yesterday. And the result? The KKR lost the must-win match.

KKR needed to win all the last three matches to stay in contention for the semi-finals. So, yesterday's match against the CSK was a 'do or die' match for them. Surprisingly, Shahrukh, the owner of KKR, decided to stay away from his boys, as he thought his presence would put extra pressure on them. But he is regretting his decision after his team lost the crucial match.

“I completely take the blame for not putting up a good enough show...so much love for kkr & i couldnt reciprocate," he wrote on his Twitter page. “Will call all & thank them for trying, even if it wasnt good enuff. all r a good bunch. all of them. sometimes our best not good enuff," he added.

His team is out of this year's IPL but Shahrukh is happy with the performance of his boys. He is looking forward to a better show next year.
