IPL 2024, KKR vs PBKS Live Score: High-flying Kolkata Knight Riders take on Punjab Kings in their home game of IPL 2024 at Eden Gardens on Friday. KKR are placed at the second place in the points table with five wins from seven matches.
Nothing seems to be going in favour of the Pakistan senior men's cricket team at the moment as the Babar Azam-led suffered a crushing four-run defeat to an understrength New Zealand in the 4th T20I on Thursday. The defeat at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore was their second in as many matches after Pakistan won the second game, while the series-opener was washed out due to rain. The hosts trail 1-2 in the five-match series with the final game, also in Lahore, on Saturday.
India captain Rohit Sharma isn't the ideal choice to lead the team in T20Is, feels former Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) team director Joy Bhattacharjya. After months of speculation about his future with the Indian team in shortest format, having not played a T20I for more than a year following India's T20 World Cup semi-final loss to England in 2022, Rohit return to the side for the home series against Afghanistan earlier this year in January. His first T20I appearance in over a year came after BCCI Secretary Jay Shah backed Rohit to lead the team at this year's showpiece event in the West Indies and USA.
Former Pakistan captain Wasim Akram took a trip down the memory lane and recalled the time when bowled in nets to Sanju Sasmon during a Kolkata Knigth Riders (KKR) training camp. As some of you might recall, Akram was the bowling coach of KKR from 2010 to 2016, and during the same phase, the franchise won two IPL titles. During a recent interaction, Akram revealed that he still supports KKR in the IPL, having been part of the franchise for a solid seven editions.
Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) returned to winning ways but the manner of their victory doesn't paint a promising picture. Rajat Patidar's fiery knock of 50 runs from 20 balls proved to be the difference-maker as the franchise reached 206/7 in 20 overs. RCB's bowling unit, which has failed to fire in most occasions, put one of its finest displays, rattling the SRH top order early in the match. Though the win keeps RCB in the hunt for a spot in the playoffs, there remains a big issue for the franchise to address. It's Virat Kohli's post-powerplay game. (IPL 2024 Points Table)

Former Pakistan pacer Wasim Akram revealed the bizarre schedule of West Indies stars Sunil Narine and Andre Russell when the two players are in India for the country's marquee T20 event IPL. The Pakistan legend, who has worked with Narine and Russell during his stint as bowling coach of Kolkata Knight Riders in IPL, revealed that the two players stay up the entire night and sleep during the day when in India for the tournament.
