IPL: Mitchell Starc and the Calcutta Knight Riders have made it two from two in the IPL, after beating the Royal Challengers.
Virat Kohli batted out the innings for Royal Challengers Bengaluru with his second straight Indian Premier League half-century on Saturday but Kolkata Knight Riders still cruised to a seven-wicket victory.
Venkatesh Iyer made 50 to keep up the momentum before he was caught by Kohli while Shreyas saw out the innings with his 39.“It was important to assess the pitch and wait for those loose deliveries,” Iyer said. Cameron Green was the next topscorer at 33 but was sent back after when he missed a lightning delivery from Andre Russell crashed off his back pad and into the stumps.But Narine had his revenge soon afterwards when he sent a bouncer to Maxwell that was powered to deep point and into the arms of Rinku Singh, who kissed the ball in triumph.
