🏏IPL 2023: Match 2 - PBKS vs KKR on 01/04/23 at 3:30 PM IST 🏏 - Page 28

PBKS 191/5 (20)

CRR: 9.55

Innings Break

Too many runs gifted in the last over--

Runs Scored: 15

4 1 6 2 2 0

Target for KKR -- 192

5.12pm So Kings make only 91 in the second half after making 100 in the first. Knight Riders will be mighty pleased to restrict Kings to a sub-200 total. Their bowlers struggled up top - barring Umesh, who was rather economical - but Narine, Varun and the rest slid in a few quiet overs at the slog-end of the innings.

kkr should try narine as opener today 😆

narine as opener is crazy!

narine-gurbaz will be fire if both clicks

I hope they do but ya chances r less.

Here's Bhanuka Rajapaksa: "See Harsha I don't think it is a typical Mohali wicket. It had something for spinners and fast bowlers in the back end. (His six off Narine) Instinct took over. Told Shikhar I'd take him on. It worked. (191 score) It is a good total because we were aiming for 180-185. We've found the score. (Second season with PBKS, Bayliss' messaging) So clear. He wants me to bat top of the order and bat with a clear mind."

PBKS finish with 191 on a pitch which looks quite good for batting.

It is a challenging total.

Thanks i understood

Did you predict?

Everybody got some sort of score for the Kings today but they needed one of them to get an 80+ total or thereabouts. That didn't happen. Chandrakant Pandit said they'd be happy chasing 180-200, so is that advantage Knight Riders at the break? ESPNcricinfo's forecaster does not agree, with KKR having under 25% chance of victory. Let's see how it turns out when we join you on the other side.

However, excellent spells from Umesh and Chakravarthy helped KKR pull things back. PBKS were 100/1 after 10 overs, and were looking good to go over 200.
