NEW DELHI : West Indies skipper Rovman Powell said he is trying to persuade all-rounder Sunil Narine to come out of international retirement for the home T20 World Cup in June.
Rajasthan Royals' star Jos Buttler on Tuesday said he never lost self belief during his match-winning hundred here and took a leaf out of Mahendra Singh Dhoni and Virat Kohli's books on how to achieve targets from adverse situations. Buttler, who missed RR's last game against Punjab Kings due to an injury, single-handedly pulled off IPL's biggest chase while overwhelming Kolkata Knight Riders' 223 for 6 in the last ball of the match, remaining unbeaten on 107 off 60 balls.
Jos Buttler swung his bat merrily on way to a 60-ball 107 and single-handedly lifted Rajasthan Royals to a sensational two-wicket victory over Kolkata Knight Riders, pulling off the IPL's biggest run chase on Tuesday. Asked to bat first, Sunil Narine's 109 off 56 balls powered hosts KKR to a formidable 223/6 in front of a packed Eden Gardens. But Buttler had other ideas as he dragged the Royals, dead an buried at 121/6 in the 13th over, past the target of 224 in the last ball of the game after the visitors needed 46 runs in the last three overs, and 28 in 12 balls. Batting first on a fresh pitch, Narine blazed away to a 49-ball 100 to lead KKR's charge in this top-of-the-table clash.
Following his side's disappointing 2-wicket loss against Rajasthan Royals (RR) in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024, Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) skipper Shreyas Iyer said that it is "hard" to explain what happened in the game. While speaking after the end of the match, Shreyas said that emotions were on a roller-coaster in the last moment of the game since they hadn't thought that they would get into a close situation.
It was the day of another last-over drama at the IPL 2024. Kolkata Knight Riders looked like pocketing the match against Rajasthan Royals at the Eden Gardens but Jos Buttler had some other idea. The RR star batter scored 107* as RR chased down a target of 224 - the highest ever in IPL history - on the last ball of the 20th over. With the win, RR consolidated their top spot with 12 points from seven matches while KKR are second with eight points from six matches.
Rajasthan Royals consolidated their position at the top of the IPL 2024 points table with a thrilling win over Kolkata Knight Riders on Tuesday. Jos Buttler played a sensational knock to guide his side to victory on the final ball of the match as Sunil Narine's maiden T20 century went in vain. Thanks to the win, RR have 12 points from 7 matches and are best placed to book their spot in the IPL 2024 playoffs. KKR, on the other hand, remained second with eight points but they still have the best NRR (Net Run Rate) in the competition. Chennai Super Kings and Sunrisers Hyderabad are third and fourth respectively with eight points each. Royal Challengers Bengaluru are at the bottom of the table.
The match between Kolkata Knight Riders and Rajasthan Royals some some scintillating batting from Sunil Narine. The West Indies star slammed a 49-ball century.
