The 23-year-old Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) right-arm pacer Harshit Rana brought back his controversial flying kiss celebration during the 15th match of the Indian Premier League 2025.
Harshit Rana pulled off a flying kiss celebration with a slight twist after dismissing the explosive Sunrisers Hyderabad opening batsman Abhishek Sharma at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata on Thursday, April 3.

Harshit Rana removes Abhishek Sharma for 2
Defending 200, the Kolkata Knight Riders bowlers took their team to a great start as Vaibhav Arora removed Travis Head in the first over, and Harshit Rana removed Abhishek Sharma in the second over.
On the last ball of the 2nd over, Harshit Rana bowled a slower ball to Abhishek Sharma wide of the off-stump. Abhishek Sharma threw his hands at it and the bottom hand came off. The ball looped off the edge and went straight into the hands of Venkatesh Iyer in the slips.
After dismissing the SRH opener Abhishek Sharma for 6-ball 2, Harshit Rana brought out a flying kiss celebration. However, he did it with a twist after being punished by the governing body last season as he was seen giving the kiss to the crowd and not the batter.
