In a high-octane clash between Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH), Rinku Singh, known for his finishing prowess, showcased his mettle before his departure in the crucial 20th over.

Facing T Natarajan's delivery, Singh aimed to power the ball over mid-wicket but found himself caught out as he mistimed the shot, providing SRH with a much-needed breakthrough. Despite his departure, Singh's contribution in supporting the explosive Andre Russell didn't go unnoticed, highlighting his significance as a middle-order batsman.

Earlier in the match, Phil Salt set the stage ablaze with a spectacular display of power-hitting, notching up a hat-trick of sixes in the second over. However, KKR's early jubilation turned sour as they lost four wickets within the first 10 overs, facing a period of instability. It was Singh's partnership with Salt that reignited KKR's hopes, with the duo adding a vital 54-run stand in just 29 deliveries.

Singh's aggressive approach, marked by four sixes and a four in his brisk 35-run innings off 17 balls, provided KKR with the impetus they needed. However, his dismissal, followed by Salt's departure after reaching a well-deserved half-century, left KKR relying on the firepower of Russell and Singh to steer them and laid a solid foundation for KKR's total of 208-7.
