Video: Virat Kohli's Irritated Look Says It All As KKR Star Jason Roy Hits Shahbaz Ahmed 4 Sixes in 1 Over

27.04.2023 - 03:27 sports.ndtv.com

Jason Roy led the show with a fiery fifty as Kolkata Knight Riders got their mojo back to notch a fighting 200 for five against Royal Challengers Bangalore in the IPL in Bengaluru on Wednesday.

Having slipped to eighth spot after four losses on the trot, KKR finally got into the act with Roy setting tempo up front when he smashed five sixes and four boundaries en route to his 29-ball 56 as he and Narayan Jagadeesan (27; 29b) gave KKR their best ever start -- 83 runs from 56 balls.

KKR's batting came on either side of Sri Lankan legspin sensation Hasaranga's two terrific bowling spells as he returned with 4-0-24-2 that caused enough flutter.

First, his miserly spell after the powerplay gave the impetus for Vyshak's double blow when he dismissed Jagadeesan and Roy.

However, what infuriated a few was the attempt from KKR spinner Suyash Sharma to bowl a wide ball on the final delivery of the 13th over, in what looked like a bid to deny Jaiswal a hundred. Former India cricketer Aakash Chopra was left disappointed with Suyash's intent.
