Second Innings: Kolkata Knight Riders

Kolkata Knight Riders are chasing a seemingly achievable target of 167 runs. Shubman Gill and Venkatesh Iyer walk out to open the batting. But the Sunrisers Hyderabad bowlers had different plans as Gill fell early, creating pressure on the KKR batting lineup, and the run-rate slowed down. Venkatesh Iyer kept pushing the score but didn’t get much support from the other end. At the end of 10 overs, they still needed 87 runs, which seemed difficult against the formidable SRH bowling lineup.

Kolkata Knight Riders Collapse

As the innings progressed, it became evident that Kolkata Knight Riders were struggling with the required run-rate. A few tight overs and a couple of quick wickets meant that the match was slipping away from them. The middle order of KKR failed to provide stability to the innings, and they kept losing wickets at regular intervals. The Sunrisers Hyderabad bowlers’ excellent performance restricted Kolkata Knight Riders to 125/7 in 20 overs, and SRH won the match by 41 runs.
