Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) were expected to land in Kolkata much earlier than they actually did. Their flight took off from Lucknow but was diverted twice after bad weather in Kolkata did not allow their charter plane to land, and they had to spend the night in Varanasi. The ordeal has been chronicled by KKR as a vlog.

The flight was first diverted to Guwahati, but after another failed attempt at landing in Kolkata, it had to be diverted again, this time to Varanasi, where it had to be grounded overnight.
The players spent the night in a hotel at Varanasi, but it literally turned into a ‘blessing’ in disguise as the squad got a chance to visit the Kashi Vishwanath temple.
