In a closely contested match between Kolkata Knight Riders and Punjab Kings, Arshdeep Singh’s excellent bowling kept his team in the game. With six runs required off the last over, KKR was in the driver’s seat. However, Arshdeep’s impressive bowling made it impossible for KKR to score the required runs. The match went down to the last ball, with KKR needing two runs to win. Arshdeep missed his line and length on the final delivery, allowing Rinku Singh to hit a boundary and seal the match for KKR.
Rinku and his teammates celebrated the victory in style, while Arshdeep was left in tears due to his disappointment. Despite performing well for his team in the past, the young player failed to deliver on this occasion. As a result, he left the ground with watery eyes.
KKR move to number five in the IPL Points Table
KKR has returned to their winning ways after a struggling start in the first half of IPL. Their recent five-wicket win over Punjab Kings has put them at number five in the points table.

Mumbai Indians will be hosting Bangalore on May 9. This gives both teams a glorious chance to win and move up to the top four. The upcoming matches will be crucial for these teams as they battle for a spot in the playoffs. The IPL is set to provide an exciting finale, with every game holding significant importance.
