KKR vs LSG IPL 2022: Quinton de Kock's performance in the first half of the game against Kolkata Knight Riders had already won all the appreciation there was to be collected with his 70-ball-140*. However, the South African took a stunner in the very first over of the second innings to dismiss KKR opener, Venkatesh Iyer. 

After opting to bat first and put up a target of 211, Mohsin Khan was brought on to bowl the first over of the innings for Lucknow Super Giants. After 3 dot deliveries, Mohsin bowled a delivery which nipped in from a good length. KKR opener Venkatesh Iyer prodded forward to drive the delivery.

However, the young opener failed to account for the movement as the ball took the batter's inside edge. LSG wicket-keeper Quinton de Kock dived full length towards his right. Horizontal to the ground, the keeper completed the catch mid-air and made his presence strong after smashing 140 runs in the first innings. 

Earlier, Lucknow Super Giants captain KL Rahul won the toss & opted to bat first against Kolkata Knight Riders in the 66th match of IPL 2022. With the help of Quinton de Kock's unbeaten century and skipper KL Rahul's fifty, LSG posted 210/0 in 20 overs on the board. This match is being played at Dr DY Patil Sports Academy, Mumbai.
