A 24-ball innings from Venkatesh Iyer helped Kolkata Knight Riders register their first 50-run partnership for the IPL 2022 season. In what appears to be their 6th opening pair change, it can be said that this opening pair has worked for KKR who needs to win their remaining games by a big margin to keep them in contention for the playoffs.
Iyer unleashed a fury against the Mumbai Indians where he went on to hit 3 fours and 4 sixes and boasted a strike rate of 179 in his fiery innings. With Ajinkya Rahane back on the team and giving him a steady companionship, the duo safely reached the 50-run mark.

It has been a disappointing season for Iyer and thus his place in the Indian team has come under a serious threat. In 10 games that he played for KKR, he has managed to score just 175 runs and an equally horrible average of 19.44. Iyer will be hoping for more such innings to showcase his talent and keep his place in contention for both KKR and in the upcoming series against South Africa.
