Iyer's attack puts KKR on course

May 26, 2024 22:31

KKR 72-1 (6 ovs) SRH 113 | Scorecard

Natarajan comes under attack at the hands of Venkatesh, who is keen to make most of the final over of Powerplay.

The first ball is short and wide as Venkatesh cuts it powerfully past point for a four and then pulls the next over midwicket for a boundary.

Natarajan bowls a full delivery on the pads as this time Venkatesh flicks it all the way over square leg for a six.

He then looks to heave the pacer over the leg side but gets the thick outside edge which flies through the vacant slip region for another four.

Singles off the last two balls as Natarajan gives away 20 runs in his second over.

KKR are racing towards victory as they reach 72/1 in six overs.

Venkatesh Iyer has smashed his way to an entertaining 40 from 12 balls, with three sixes and four fours, while Gurbaz has made 21 from 22 balls.

They need another 42 runs from 14 overs for victory at an asking rate of three.
