Shahrukh Khan and co-owner Juhi Chawla cheered for their home team at Kolkata’s Eden Gardens. Kolkata Knight Riders defeated Sunrisers Hyderabad by 6 wickets with the help of Andre Russell and Nitish Rana. Rana hit 47-ball 68, while Russell finished the game with his 49 not-out.
Shubman Gill completed the proceedings for KKR as he smashed Shakib Al Hasan for consecutive sixes in the 20th over to complete the 182-run chase with two balls to spare. The Caribbean cricketer has contributed significantly in KKR’s recent success in the league. His inclusion in the side adds depth in both batting and the bowling department.
