The second score in the IPL smashed by KKR falls five runs short of SRH’s best ever mark
At the Dr. Y.S. Rajashekar Reddy ACA-VDCA International Cricket Stadium in Visakhapatnam, the team put on 272 runs at a loss of 7 wickets on the scoreboard. Sunil Narine scored 85 runs in 39 balls to get to the mark before losing his wicket to Mitchell Marsh.
Angkrish Raghuvanshi slammed a half-century as well in just 25 deliveries, providing able support to the Trinidadian from the other end. During the innings break, he told the broadcasters, “When I went in to bat, the intention was very simple. I just wanted to watch the ball. It was so much fun (watching Narine bat at the other end). Whatever they were bowling was coming on well to the bat. We didn’t see a lot of spin.”
However, the dismissal of the duo didn’t bring any kind of respite for the DC bowlers as Andre Russell continued the onslaught, finishing with a 19-ball 41.
