Chahal to Shreyas Iyer, THATS OUT!! Lbw!!

Chahal to Shreyas Iyer, out Lbw!! And Chahal has struck big! It is a huge strike indeed. That was a fuller one, Shreyas Iyer misses the line to be trapped LBW. He wanted to work that across the line but missed it. Then took a review in hope. But even the more optimistic individuals would have understood that Shreyas Iyer was a goner. Chahal is swinging the game back RR’s way. Shreyas Iyer lbw b Chahal 85(51) [4s-7 6s-4]

Shivam Mavi, right handed bat, comes to the crease

Chahal to Shivam Mavi, THATS OUT!! Caught!!

Chahal to Shivam Mavi, out Caught by Riyan Parag!! More tragedy for KKR. Shivam Mavi wanted to slam one down the ground and holes out at long-on. That was a well tossed up delivery and Shivam Mavi fell for the bait. Was it needed off the first ball? Simple inexperience. KKR continue shooting themselves on the foot. Shivam Mavi c Riyan Parag b Chahal 0(1)

Pat Cummins, right handed bat, comes to the crease

Chahal to Cummins, THATS OUT!! Caught!!

Chahal to Cummins, out Caught by Samson!! And there’s the hat-trick! The stick sized pint bomb has exploded and smashed KKR into smithereens. Four wickets in a single over. Three back-to-back and RR are on top. That was a rippah of a leggie, Cummins pushed at it and the keeper this time cups that with a lot of happiness.
