Durgesh Tiwary’s View : First of all what an fascinating and captivating game it was. Congratulations to RR for their consecutive wins. What a turn around for them and complete team performance. At one time it was tough for them to chase the biggest IPL total but their top order batsman and Rahul Tewatia charismatic performance help in incredible run chase.
For KXIP batsmen done their very good job and till 17th overs they were at winning position but their main pacer Sheldon Cottrell given away 5 sixes in a over and after that poor bowling by Mohammed Shami in his last over and due his length bowl Jofra Archer hits 2 consecutive sixes and turn around the game.
KXIP bowling unit need to works hard and Coach Anil Kumble need to work on it. But special shoot out for Nicholas Pooran for saving 4 runs and it was one of the best fielding I have ever seen. Overall excellent fielding by KXIP team but they bowlers let them down.
