In a spectacular display of power-hitting, Sunil Narine’s blazing knock of 81 runs off just 38 balls guided Kolkata Knight Riders to a commanding 98-run win over Lucknow Super Giants in the IPL clash on Sunday.
Opting to bowl first, Lucknow Super Giants witnessed a relentless onslaught from KKR’s batsmen, as they became the first team to breach the 200-run mark at the Ekana Stadium.
Narine’s innings were marked by seven towering sixes and six boundaries, setting the tone for KKR’s imposing total of 235/6.
In response, Lucknow Super Giants struggled to keep up with the required run rate, losing wickets at regular intervals. Despite a valiant effort from Marcus Stoinis (36), the hosts succumbed to KKR’s bowling attack, getting bowled out for 137 in 16.1 overs.
KKR’s collective bowling effort, led by Varun Chakravarthy and others, dismantled Lucknow Super Giants’ batting lineup, securing the comprehensive victory.
With this win, Kolkata Knight Riders surged to the top of the IPL points table, sharing the same points as Rajasthan Royals but with an additional game played. On the other hand, Lucknow Super Giants slipped to fifth place, with their net run rate taking a significant hit.
Narine’s explosive innings, coupled with KKR’s clinical performance with the ball, reaffirmed their position as strong contenders in the IPL 2024 season.
