IPL 2022, The Indian Premier League is coming to the end of its matches. Teams are only left with 1 match each. On Wednesday the encounter of Kolkata Knight Riders and Lucknow Supergiants took place. The match was a very vital one for KKR as it was a must win game which would decide their fate to qualify for the playoffs. LSG won the toss.
Batting first LSG posted a total of 210 without any loss. LSG openers made a record breaking partnership with the highest ever score without losing a single wicket in IPL. South African wicketkeeper batsman Quinton de Kock scored a ton with KL Rahul playing safe at the other end. With the help of Quinton de Kock’s brilliant 140 off 70 deliveries involving 10 boundaries and 10 sixes and KL Rahul’s 68 of 51 Lucknow put such a massive total on the board.
But the thing which caught everyone’s eye was the bouncer from Varun Chakraborty to Quinton de Kock. The right arm mystery spinner surprised everyone including keeper Sam Billings with the bouncer. De Kock tried playing a shot in the mid-wicket region but failed to time the ball
In reply KKR fought well till the end but couldn’t manage to take the match away from LSG. LSG won the match by 2 runs after a dramatical last over. But the innings of Rinku Singh won many hearts.
