What were the talking points in KKR vs GT?
Finn Allen almost scored his second hundred of the season, hitting 10 sixes in his 35-ball stay. Angkrish Raghuvanshi and Cameron Green both played influential knocks to take their side to a mammoth 247-2. Gujarat’s approach in the chase was rather puzzling, with Jos Buttler and Shubman Gill probably waiting too long to accelerate. Gill’s dismissal in the 17th over effectively killed the chase for the visiting side at Eden Gardens.
