In the end, Rahul Tewatia 53 runs from 31 balls, and Jofra Archer 13* runs from 3 balls lead the team to victory by 4 wickets, and it was the highest run chase ever in the history of IPL.

Even after that, they did not allow the opposition to score runs freely. They managed to pick up only 3 more wickets but restricted the opposition to a total of 142 runs in 20 overs for 4 wickets. Cummins, Chakravarthy, and Russell picked up 1 wicket each.

With 143 runs to chase, KKR had a bad start as they lost the wickets of Sunil Narine for a duck. Nitish Rana batted well, scoring 26 runs from 13 balls but got out early. But Shubman Gill played brilliantly, scoring 70* runs and Eoin Morgan 40* runs helped KKR easily win the match by 8 wickets.

RR vs KKR Head-to-Head Records

Venue Stats

Average 1st Innings Score: 180 (From 5 games played at this venue so far in this season)

Average 2nd Innings Score: 151 (From 5 matches played at this venue so far in this season)

Pitch Conditions

The pitch here is considered neutral, but the batsmen have a little advantage. The team winning the toss would want to bowl first because of the dew factor in the 2nd innings.

But the results so far have been favourable for the team batting first because the pitch tends to slow down in the 2nd innings, and it becomes difficult to time the ball.

Anything over 170 in the 1st innings can be considered to be a fighting total. All the 5 matches played here have been won by the team batting first.

Weather Conditions

There is no chance of rain on the match day, and the temperature is expected to be in mid-thirties.
