VIDEO: Rahul Tripathi Walks Off After Being Injured, KKR In Big Trouble

Kolkata Knight Riders captain Eoin Morgan won the toss and elected to bowl first against Chennai Super Kings in the Final of the IPL 2021. The match is being played at Dubai International Cricket Stadium, Dubai.

However, this decision seems unfruitful for KKR at the moment as CSK have put up 153/2 in 17 overs. Kolkata seems to be struggling at the moment to stop CSK from scoring an out of range total. Faf du Plessis is batting at 69* while Moeen Ali is at 16*.

KKR suffered another big setback as Rahul Tripathi, the in-form Kolkata batter, was seen walking off the field limping. The possible cause seems to be a stretch in the hamstring while fielding. This could be a signal of distress for KKR - since CSK may score a high total, and the absence of in-form batter may prove to be disastrous if the KKR openers & other middle-order batters fail.
