Match 3 of the IPL 2024 felt like a throwback to 2014 for KKR. With Gambhir in the dugout, Russell smashing it at Eden Gardens, and Narine weaving his magic with both bat and ball, it was a nostalgic ride. The team's bowlers displayed nerves of steel to clinch wins in tense situations.
Despite posting a formidable 208, thanks to Andre Russels’ explosive innings and a solid fifty from Salt, KKR found themselves in a tighter spot than expected. The match shouldn't have been so close. SRH began strongly, with Agarwal and Abhishek Sharma showing promise, but their departures after decent starts left them struggling.
KKR's spinners tightened the screws in the middle overs, with Narine particularly impressive, not conceding a single boundary and snaring the crucial wicket of Rahul Tripathi. What seemed like a routine win turned nerve-wracking as Klaasen hammered Chakaravarthy's last over for 21 runs.
In a dramatic turn, Klaasen and Shahbaz took on Starc, plundering 26 runs in the penultimate over. With 60 needed off the final three overs, SRH brought the equation down to 13 off the last one.
Harshit Rana's composed bowling ensured KKR won the match by 4 runs. securing two crucial points.
