KL Rahul’s decision to bowl first proved wrong

Lucknow Super Giants captain KL Rahul won the toss and decided to bowl first. He said that he does not have much understanding of the pitch, so he wants to understand the behavior of the pitch while bowling first. But perhaps he could not understand the behavior of the pitch and his batsmen kept returning to the pavilion one after the other. Whereas the KKR batsman played his natural game and set a target like a mountain in front of Lucknow. 237 runs was also the biggest score of Ekana Stadium till date.

Naveen Ul Haq took 3 wickets

Naveen Ul Haq was the most successful bowler from Lucknow. He took 3 wickets in his four overs, but also gave away 49 runs. After this, Yash Thakur, Ravi Bishnoi and Yudhveer Singh had to be satisfied with one wicket each. Overall, KKR’s batting was excellent and they did not let the Lucknow bowlers make any progress. Ramandeep Singh, who came to bat in the last over, scored unbeaten 25 runs in 6 balls. He hit 3 sixes and one four.

Only two batsmen from Lucknow could cross the score of 20.

The Lucknow team, which set out to chase the target of 236 runs, had a very bad start. The first blow to the team came in the form of Arshin Kulkarni in the second over of the innings. Lucknow lost its wickets at frequent intervals and in the end the entire team was all out on the score of 137 in 16.1 overs. Marcus Stoinis scored the maximum 36 runs for Lucknow. Captain KL Rahul returned to the pavilion after scoring 25 runs on 21 balls. Apart from this, no other batsman could reach the score of 20.
