Venkatesh Iyer scored a fifty while Phil Salt and Sunil Narine started Kolkata Knight Riders’s (KKR) on the right foot they defeated Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) by 7 wickets at the M.Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru on Friday
Earlier, Virat Kohli continued his rich vein of form as he starred with an unbeaten 83 with RCB posting 182/6 against the KKR. The pick of the bowlers were Harshit Rana and Andre Russell who took 2 wickets apiece after Kolkata won the toss and opted to bowl first.
It has not been easy for RCB to create a winning template at home over the years. A top-order wobble saved partially by a fluent Virat Kohli half-century had helped the host brave a fine burst from Punjab Kings earlier this week. However, it took a fantastic cameo from Dinesh Karthik to take them over the line
