5 memorable moments from KKR vs RPS that don't fade away
After some game days that consisted of incredibly tight and marginal affairs, we have been taken back to the land of one-sided games as Kolkata Knight Riders completely destroyed Rising Pune Supergiants with their spirited performance.
It seems like Kolkata will one of the teams that will qualify for the play-offs as this win puts them ever so close to their first target—leaving worried faces in the Mumbai Indians and Gujarat Lions camp.
After batting first, Pune could reach only 103 in the 17.4 that they could bat. They were interrupted by rain and a revised score of 66 was put on board for Kolkata Knight Riders to chase.
In this rain-affected match, there were plenty of memorable moments that don't fade away, quite like the Axe Signature range of body perfumes. Here are 5 of the best:
George Bailey gets going
The players that have been drafted midway in this tournament haven’t really got going—except, of course, in the last game day. After Chris Jordan finally ended his horrible run of form, George Bailley also joined the part—albeit not in as grand a way as the Englishman.
In a game where every other batsmen in his team failed to make an impact, he brought some respite with a carefully treaded 27-ball 33.
However, despite getting the good start, he couldn’t make it count—and neither could his team-mate as their slow run rate cost them big time in the end.
