Details: Kolkata Knight Riders captain Dinesh Karthik won the toss and elected to bat first in the 24th game of IPL 2020. KKR included Andre Russell, Sunil Narine, Pat Cummins and Eoin Morgan as four foreign players for this game. One change in the playing XI. They have included Prasidh Krishna comes in place of unfit Shivam Mavi.

Kolkata Knight Riders after losing 2 quick wickets have a decent stand between Shubman Gill and Eoin Morgan and then it was the captain Karthik show. He played with gay abandon, played some sublime shots and ensured that runs came in a hurry and takes the team to 164/6 in their 20 overs scored 89 runs in last 7 overs. Dinesh Karthik scored 58 of 29 balls and Shubman Gill scored 57 of 47 balls. For KXIP Ravi Bishnoi, Arshdeep Singh and Shami picks 1 wicket each
Kings XI Punjab gets a flying start and openers did 100+ partnerships and at one time they just need 21 of 16 balls but one bad decision and bad luck changes the whole game and they eventually lost the game by 2 inches (In Last ball they needed 6 runs and Maxwell hits the ball which just 2inches short from boundary rope) and 2 runs and scored 162/5 in their 20 overs. KL Rahul scored 74 runs 58 balls and Mayank Agarwal scored 56 in 39 balls. For KKR Prasidh Krishna picks 3 wickets for 29 runs in his 4 overs quota.
KKR: 164/6 in 20 overs
KXIP: 162/5 in 20 overs
Result: Kolkata Knight Riders won by 2 runs
Man of the Match: Dinesh Karthik
Durgesh Tiwary’s View : Congratulations to KKR for their consecutive wins. Hat’s off to Narine for brilliant bowling in death overs and win the game for team. Subhman Gill played the anchor role and captain supported him well by his aggressive batting. Overall this game will sure boost the confidence of this team and chances of qualify to play-offs is not far for them.
For KXIP bowling was biggest concern today the way they have lost is not acceptable in this format. Coach Anil Kumble and team management why sent Simran Singh ahead of Maxwell can’t justified. They only needed 21 runs of 16 balls with 8 wickets in hand at one time but still lose the by 2 runs I mean how far bad luck and bad decision goes against a team in which both openers are top run scorers. I don’t know why they can purchased Hardus Viljoen if they don’t want to give him chance. This season is over for them and now they need to find the best combination else fortune will not change for them at all.
