Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) batsmen found the going difficult against both pace and spin and were shot out for 128 in 18.5 overs by Royal Challangers Bangalore (RCB) in their IPL contest at the DY Patil Stadium yesterday. At the time of going to press, RCB were 59-3 in xx overs with David Willey and Sherfane Rutherford batting on 17 and 14 respectively.
KKR, who had stunned title holders Chennai Super Kings in the IPL opener, plunged into deep trouble on a pitch where the ball stopped after pitching, making stroke making a bit of a gamble. West Indian power hitter Andre Russell’s 18-ball 25 was the highest individual score even as Sri Lankan leg spinner Wanindu Hasaranga finished with superb figures of 4-20. Medium pacers Akash Deep picked up 3-45 while Harshal Patel, last season’s leading wicket taker, was brought on as the fifth bowler and ended up with excellent analysis of 2-11.
