KKR vs RR: Watch - Jos Buttler Gets Run Out After A Horrible Mix-up With Yashasvi Jaiswal As Andre Russell Lands A Direct-hit

Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) had a topsy-turvy innings when they posted 149-8. The visitors got off to a brilliant start as Yashasvi Jaiswal whacked Nitish Rana all-around the park and scored 26 runs in the first over of the match. Jos Buttler was seen struggling to time the ball. Jos Buttler looked in two minds whether to attack or defend.

KKR’s batters struggled against the spinners. Venkatesh Iyer smashed a fine knock of 57 runs in 42 balls and struck 2 fours and 4 sixes. Yuzvendra Chahal was the wrecker-in-chief who took 4 scalps and gave away only 25 runs in his 4-over spell.

The dashing batter Rinku Singh astonishingly had a rare off-day as he scored 16 runs in 18 balls. Trent Boult was the silent assassin who earlier got rid of the dangerous batters Jason Roy & Rahmanullah Gurbaz which put the visitors in a state of ascendancy.

Massive confusion between Jos Buttler & Yashasvi Jaiswal

It won’t be wrong to say that there was a lack of effort for the single as a dive would have saved Jos Buttler. RR’s score at 1.4 overs was 30-1 as Buttler was dismissed on 0 in 3 balls. RR fans would be hoping that Yashasvi continues to dictate the terms.
