Chasing a target of 218, KKR needed a good start. But Sunil Narine was removed on the first ball after a brilliant run-out by Shimron Hetmyer. But that didn’t dampen KKR’s spirits. Shreyas Iyer and Aaron Finch kept going at a brisk rate, bringing up a 107-run stand to stay on course to win.
After Prasidh Krishna removed Aaron Finch, Shreyas Iyer kept going, smashing 85 off 51. However, things turned upside down with Yuzvendra Chahal, bagging his first hat-trick of his career. He took the wickets of Venkatesh Iyer, Shreyas Iyer and Pat Cummins in one over to bag the first fifer of the season and wrecked KKR’s backbone.
While Umesh Yadav kept hopes alive, Obed McCoy under pressure defended 13 runs off the last over, taking two wickets of Sheldon Jackson and Umesh Yadav to hand RR a famous win.
