Kolkata Knight Riders defeated Punjab Kings by a margin of 5 wickets at Eden Gardens to get into the 10-point jigsaw! KKR is now the 5th team with 10 points on the IPL 2023 points table. They have 5 wins from 11 games and are currently sitting in the 5th position with a net run rate of -0.079.
It was a game that slid both ways throughout with KKR emerging as winners. Punjab Kings batted first after winning the toss and got to 179/7 in 20 overs. They got a late boost when they scored 21 runs from the 20th over bowled by inexperienced Harshit Rana.
During the run-chase, Nitish Rana scored a half-century while Andre Russell and Rinku Singh did the rest at the death to take Knight Riders home on the last delivery!
