Having put to bat first, the Rajasthan Royals lost the early wicket of their specialist batsman Sanju Samson. In 11 balls, the right-hander was only able to score 13 runs, which included 2 fours
After struggling to score runs in the previous match, swashbuckling opener Yashasvi Jaiswal played a decent knock of 29 runs off 24 deliveries. His knock saw him smash 2 fours and 2 sixes. With this, the left-hander also achieved the milestone of completing 200 fours
Stand-in captain Riyan Parag, too, was unable to score many runs. The Assam-based cricketer returned to the pavilion on 25 runs in 15 balls. His knock also included 3 sixes
Kolkata's spin duo, Varun Chakravarthy and Moeen Ali, created havoc in Rajasthan's batting line-up. The spinners stood tall on the occasion and went onto grab quick wickets, which left the RR batting line-up completely shattered
Despite the team losing wickets at regular intervals, Dhruv Jurel played a crucial role in taking the team to a respectable total. The right-handed talented batsman garnered 33 runs off 28 deliveries, which was laced with 5 fours
Pacers Vaibhav Arora and Harshit Rana, too, claimed two wickets each. Kolkata's decision to bowl first after winning the toss proved to be the right decision for the side. Rajasthan Royals posted a target of 152 runs for the loss of nine wickets
