Before that, Kolkata Knight Riders scored 261 runs in 20 overs, batting first. They had a strong start with Sunil Narine and Phil Salt adding 138 runs for the first wicket. Other players like Venkatesh Iyer, Andre Russell, and skipper Shreyas Iyer also contributed.

Kolkata Knight Riders have been performing really well in this year’s Indian Premier League (IPL). They’ve won five out of seven matches. In their next match against Punjab Kings on April 26, they are expected to do well. Meanwhile, Punjab Kings have lost their last four matches, including one against Gujarat Titans where they managed only 146 runs and lost by three wickets.

Bairstow Player of the Match:

 We got off to a good start. That was the key. They got off to a good start as well thanks to Sunil. You have to take risks. Sometimes luck will go your way. Some days it won’t be your day. Tried to whack it as far as possible. If it is in your area, you had to go. We had a couple of quiet overs when Sunil was bowling as we knew how important he is for them. Shashank Singh is a special player. The knowledge he has had been amazing. How clean he hit it! Was indeed very special.(KKR vs PBKS Highlights 42 Match)

Shreyas Iyer KKR captain:

I would have (taken 260 at the start of the day). The way the batters batted was tremendous to see, Sunny coming in.. the way Salt batted, they delivered and it was a treat for the eyes. Both the teams played tremendously, one of those games where you go back to the drawing board and see where it went wrong especially not being able to defend 260.

We have to sum up the conditions and come up with better ideas. It is brilliant to see him (Narine) go out there and strike the ball, hopefully he keeps continuing with such performances.

Shashank Singh –

When I was in the dug-out, I was just watching the behaviour of the pitch, felt it was coming on nicely with good bounce. Just backed myself to hit the other bowlers, was happy to take the singles and doubles off Narine, we wanted to play him out. He has given me complete freedom (on coach Trevor Bayliss), has told me to play the way I can. (KKR vs PBKS Highlights 42 Match)

A big positive when Jonny (Bairstow) supports you (from the other end), he has played 100 Test matches and to see him clap for you, you’ll feel happy and vindicated. We still have 5 matches to go, we’ll take it one match at a time and I believe that we can still qualify to the playoffs.
