IPL 2024: Russell's All-round Show, Rana's Brilliant Final Over Top Klassen's Stunning 63 As KKR Beat SRH By 4 Runs (Ld)

Indian Premier League: A superb all-round performance by Andre Russell, who hammered a 25-ball 64 and 2-25) followed by a brilliant final over by Harshit Rana helped Kolkata Knight Riders halt a rampaging Heinrich Klassen (63 off 29 balls) and snatch a narrow four-run victory against Sunrisers Hyderabad off the final ball in a nerve-wrecking encounter in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 at the Eden Gardens on Saturday.

It was a last-ball finish to remember as Klassen dragged SRH from the verge of defeat to almost over the line before Rana took it away from them. From 60 off 18 balls, Klassen and Shahbaz Ahmed hammered 21 and 26 runs in the next two overs to make it 13 off six balls. They blazed 81 runs off the last five overs and set the pulse racing with their brilliant strokeplay.

Klassen hammered Rana for a six off the first delivery and with seven needed off five balls, conceded a single and sent back Shahbaz Ahmed, caught by Shreyas Iyer to pull things back for KKR. But it was still SRH's match to lose as Marco Jansen took a single and gave Klassen the strike to hammer a six-and-seal victory. Suyash Sharma pulled off a superb catch at short third to dismiss Klassen as Kolkata Knight Riders sealed a nerve-wracking victory.
