The Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) opening duo of Phil Salt and Sunil Narine have been one of the most dangerous partnerships in the ongoing IPL 2024 season, and the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) side did not entertain this duo. 

Soon after LSG won the toss and elected to bowl first against the KKR at the Ekana Stadium on May 5th, LSG looked for an early breakthrough. 

In the 5th over of the match, Naveen-ul-Haq broke the stunning partnership of the two. The LSG pacer, bowling his first over of the night, struck and took Phil Salt, scoring 32 runs off 14 balls with 5 fours and 1 six.

It was a slower and good length delivery angling in from outside off, where the Englishman attempted for the cut. However, a thick outside edge flew to the right of the Wicket-keeper KL Rahul, who didn't miss taking the catch as he dived and pulled off a catch like the legend MS Dhoni.

At the time of writing, the Purple and Gold Brigade at 80 for 1 in 7 overs, with Angkrish Raghuvanshi and Sunil Narine at the crease.
