New Delhi: In the sixth match of IPL 2022, the teams of Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) clashed. The match at DY Patil Stadium on Wednesday night was very interesting. Both the teams tried 100% to win the match. But in the end, Dinesh Karthik hit a six on the first ball of the last over and then a four and gave RCB the first win of this season. Although Kolkata also tried its best, some decisions of the route captain Shreyas Iyer turned out to be heavy for Kolkata.
KKR had 6 bowlers as a substitute with Venkatesh Iyer for this match, but some decisions of Shreyas Iyer's captaincy from the 12th over to the 18th over cost Kolkata against RCB. Apart from Andre Russell, all the bowlers bowled brilliantly for Kolkata. Russell was the only expensive bowler. He spent 36 runs in his 2.2 overs which helped RCB to a great extent in the match. Captain Shreyas Iyer bowled Venkatesh Iyer in the 19th over even after Russell's first two overs proved to be expensive, which proved to be a bit costly for KKR.
Venkatesh came to bowl in the 19th over and conceded 10 runs in his over. With Venkatesh Iyer, if Shreyas Iyer had used the spinners between 12 and 15 overs, there could have been a chance for Kolkata to return to the match. KKR fast bowler Umesh Yadav took 2 for 16 in his 4 overs, while Tim Southee took 3 wickets for 20 runs in 4 overs. Both these fast bowlers took 5 wickets giving 36 runs in total 8 overs. Using these two bowlers in the last over could have turned the pass towards Kolkata.
