May 15, 2018 20:27

Rajasthan 63-1 (5 ovs) vs KKR | Scorecard

KKR forced to introduce Sunil Narine as they look to make a breakthrough to somehow pull back things.

Tripathi lofts the second ball wide of the fielder at long-on for a four as Rajasthan race past the 50-run mark, in just 3.2 overs.

A single to Tripathi followed by a wide from Narine before Buttler crashes the last ball through the covers for another four to continue the fiery start.

A desperate KKR introduce Andre Russell, who has not been in his batting form this season.

The second ball is on the pads as Tripathi clips it on the leg side for a couple followed by a single and Buttler also takes one.

Russell makes the breakthrough with the wicket of Tripathi, who looks to pull a short ball but gets a thin edge and is caught behind by wicketkeeper Karthik.

Tripathi did his job, stroking 27 from 15 balls, putting on a quickfire stand of 63 runs from 29 balls for the opening wicket with Buttler.
