Fortune favoured spinner Suni Narine on Sunday as a decision taken by the on-field umpire backfired and turned in their favour after a review. A beautiful delivery off Narine beat Jaydev Unadkat’s bat, struck his pad and went to crash into the stumps. However, the bails remained intact, forcing the on-field umpire to give his decision as ‘not out’.
Narine’s bowled turned LBW delivery
KKR skipper Shreyas Iyer took a last-minute review to challenge the not out decision. Ball tracking then showed the delivery going on to hit the stumps, thereby forcing the third umpire to overturn the on field’s umpires decision.

Opting to bat first, SRH got off to a horrific start that saw a top-order collapse in the most crucial game. Chepauk did not get to witness the magic from the duo of Abhishek Sharma and Travis Head as pacers Starc and Rana struck.
KKR continued to maintain pressure on SRH, not allowing them to play freely. The bowlers struck at regular intervals and managed to bowl out SRH by 113 runs. KKR now need 114 runs to lift their third IPL title.
