KKR vs RCB | Man of the match: Wanindu Hasaranga (Moneycontrol.com)

The 24-year-old Hasaranga, acquired by RCB for โ‚น10.75 crore in the February auctions, was back in the RCB colours after making his IPL debut last year.

Playing only his fourth IPL match, Hasaranga took one more wicket in his fourth, and the 15th of the KKR innings, by having Tim Southee hit straight to his skipper fielding at long on. He was brought into bowl on Wednesday by his skipper Faf du Plessis in the seventh over and straightaway struck by removing KKR captain Shreyas Iyer cheaply.

IPL 2022, RCB vs KKR Highlights: Chasing a paltry 129, the match went into the final over, before Dinesh Karthik hit Andre Russell for a six and a four to ...

After letting Shubman Gill go and not being able to buy Rahul Tripathi back at the auction, KKR needed a solid Indian batter at the top of the order to partner Venkatesh Iyer. Rahane was an ideal choice. Shikhar Dhawan, with 659 fours in IPL so far, is the only player ahead of Kohli in the tournament. Nayar said while replying to a Hindustan Times query ahead of their IPL 2022 match against RCB. The way KKR bowled against Chennai Super Kings, you knew that this was a special unit. The RCB wicketkeeper is three away from affecting 150 dismissals in the IPL and if he gets there, he will become only the second WK after Dhoni to get to this landmark. With three balls remaining, KKR secured a close and thrilling win, cementing a place in the second Qualifier. We are extremely sorry for the delay in updates. Siraj bowls it short, outside off and the all-rounder cuts it over extra-cover for a four. The wickets keep coming for RCB and this time it is Sam Billings, who'll take the long walk back to the dugout. Virat Kohli joins Faf du Plessis in the middle as the former RCB captain starts off with consecutive boundaries. Sherfane Rutherford and David Willey are batting in the middle. Meanwhile, there was a great opportunity for him to pick a wicket, but the shot played by Sherfane Rutherford lands just in front of the fielder places at long-on.

IPL 2022, RCB vs KKR Highlights: Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) on Wednesday defeated Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) by three wickets in match of the Indian ...

RCB face KKR at the DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai. KKR displayed their bowling might in the season opener against CSK, and will look to make two wins in as many outings with a triumph today. RCB, on other hand, will look to work on their leaky bowling, which costed them the game against Punkab Kings. Leading edge skews up, and Akash takes a couple of steps to his right, before taking a straightforward catch. Not right out of the middle and in the air, but largely in control, and Billings can't get round to his right Kohli feathers one through to Jackson. RCB in trouble suddenly. Earlier, Wanindu Hasaranga took a four-wicket-haul as RCB bowled out KKR for a below-par total of 128.

Harshal Patel and Dinesh Karthik help Royal Challengers survive a ... (ESPNcricinfo.com)

Royal Challengers Bangalore 132 for 7 (Rutherford 28, Shahbaz 27, Southee 3-20, Umesh 2-16) beat Kolkata Knight Riders 128 (Russell 25, Hasaranga 4-20, ...

A drive between the bowler and mid-on off the next ball ended the game, bringing much relief to an anxious RCB dugout. Harshal made them pay with two fours in the second half of that 19th over, bowled by Venkatesh: a scoop over short fine leg and a flat-batted club to bisect long-on and deep midwicket. It left seven to get off the last over, and Russell, still clutching his shoulder gingerly, volunteered to bowl it. Umesh and Southee came back to give away just eight off the next two overs, leaving RCB needing 36 off 30. And the pressure eventually led Willey to attempt a forcing shot only to pop a catch to midwicket. Umesh Yadav and Tim Southee reduced RCB to 17 for 3 in their chase, but the smallness of the target allowed RCB to take their time. With 24 needed off 18, they seemed in control, but KKR made an attacking bowling change, bringing Southee on in the 18th. Virat Kohli came in and stroked the first two balls he faced for sublimely timed boundaries, but Umesh had his revenge in his next over, getting one to nip away from Kohli, who fiddled and nicked behind. Shreyas Iyer took on Hasaranga in the first over with the fields spread out, and picked out long-on. RCB went into this match with four fast bowlers, and it turned out they had read the surface well.Akash Deepmade two early incisions with his bouncer to the left-hander, angling across them and not always reaching them at a predictable pace or height. This has been an IPL of quick pitches with early movement, and fast bowlers have never had it better in the powerplay. KKR vs RCB ended up heavily influenced by powerplay wickets, with the two sets of fast bowlers bagging three each in that phase.
