Kolkata Knight Riders registered a comfortable 10-run win against Sunrisers Hyderabad in their opening Indian Premier League (IPL 2021) match at Chennai on Sunday.
Nitish Rana (80) and Rahul Tripathi (53) hit half-centuries at the top of the order as the Kolkata Knight Riders registered a comfortable 10-run win against Sunrisers Hyderabad in their opening Indian Premier League (IPL 2021) match at Chennai on Sunday. SRH ace spinner Rashid Khan (2/24) was yet again at his best, asking tough questions to the KKR batsmen but most of his bowling colleagues proved ineffective on a slow yet decent batting wicket. Hyderabad lost skipper David Warner (3) and Wriddhiman Saha (7) early and were always playing a catch-up game despite Jonny Bairstow’s fighting half-century. They could manage 177 for five in the end, making a losing start to the tournament.
