Kolkata Knight Riders returned to winnings ways after losing five straight matches, getting the better of Rajasthan Royals in an IPL 2022 match on Monday.

The decision paid dividends as Roy put in an impressive performance with the ball, giving away just 28 runs off his four overs with one wicket to his name.

Although, the victory was achieved before either of Rana or Rinku could get to their fifties, but both remained unbeaten and amazingly Rinku also received the player of the match.
