The Kolkata Knight Riders lost their top order including skipper Shreyas Iyer with hardly anything on the board after being put in to bat first during their IPL 2022 encounter against the Sunrisers Hyderabad at the Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai on April 15. While KKR lost wickets at regular intervals, it was the middle-order sensation Nitish Rana who held the innings from one end and carried out the rescue act.
However, during his enterprising knock, Rana hit a six which not only cleared the ropes successfully but also did some damage as his shot ended up shattering the fridge glass where aerated, energy drinks, and water bottles are kept for the players as well as the support staff. This is not the first instance where the southpaw’s shot has resulted in property damage. He had broken the lens of the camera last season.
On one of the deliveries bowled at the middle and leg stump line, Nitish Rana slashed it through the offside and the ball just landed outside the ropes which resulted in a six. After one bounce, the ball made its way straight into the fridge glass at the SRH dugout and ended up shattering it. Luckily, nothing untoward happened and a player who was sitting nearby also had a narrow escape once the glass broke. Meanwhile, Hyderabad skipper Kane Williamson also applauded the shot with a smile.
Nitish Rana went on to register a half-century off just 34 deliveries at an impressive strike rate of 147.1 including five fours and two sixes. He played a great knock under pressure just when SRH looked to be in complete control of the proceedings. T Natarajan was impressive especially who was troubling the batters with his unplayable deliveries which castled opener Venkatesh Iyer who looked in good touch. He along with the Caribbean power-hitter Andre Russell took KKR to a competitive total.

Delhi Capitals put up a clinical show on Wednesday (April 20) and thrashed Punjab Kings by nine wickets at the Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai. It was unarguably the most one-sided game of the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 so far as PBKS never really looked in the hunt. After bundling out the Kings for 115, DC crossed the line in just 10.3 overs, clinching the contest by nine wickets.
Kuldeep Yadav was one of the chief architects of DC’s triumph as he took a couple of wickets and gave away just 24 runs in his quota of four overs. Notably, the Capitals have won three games this season and every single time, Kuldeep has been adjudged the Player of the Match. It has indeed been a remarkable turnaround for the left-arm wrist-spinner, who didn’t get many chances for Kolkata Knight Riders in the last couple of seasons.
In IPL 2022, Kuldeep has so far taken 13 wickets in just six games. Speaking of his remarkable comeback, the spinner credited DC skipper Rishabh Pant for instilling confidence in him. He also revealed how Pant’s advice helped him dismiss Nathan Ellis in the game. “I have been given a lot of confidence in this IPL and I am very clear mentally as to how the batter will react to me,” Kuldeep said after the match.
“I am really enjoying my bowling after a long time and the credit behind the wickets goes to Rishabh for the way he backs his spinners. This gives a lot of confidence to the bowlers because he does not panic much and probably that’s a huge plus point,” added the wrist spinner.
Meanwhile, these are still early days for Rishabh Pant as captain and the wicketkeeper-batter has been pretty impressive so far. He brilliantly operated his bowlers against PBKS as DC were in command throughout the contest. Meanwhile, DC will now face the in-form Rajasthan Royals in their next assignment on Friday (April 22).
