Lungi Ngidi to Manish Pandey, out Caught by Mitchell Starc!! A fantastic catch by Starc. Manish Pandey was down the wicket to loft this towards wide long-on. Starc quickly moves to his right and takes a good low catch by diving in front of him. That looks like a clean catch and the third umpire confirms the same. KKR have lost two wickets, and it's Ngidi who has taken both of them. Manish Pandey walks back after playing a handy cameo. Played with a positive mindset, unfortunately a stellar effort from Starc results in his downfall.

Kuldeep Yadav to Rinku Singh, out Caught by Tristan Stubbs!! Two in two for Kuldeep. He's on a hat-trick. Rinku Singh lofts this towards wide long-off and Stubbs in the deep takes a fine running catch to his right.

Kuldeep Yadav to Tejasvi Dahiya, no run, Kuldeep Yadav almost gets a hat-trick! Porel has dropped Tejasvi Dahiya's catch. This was a straighter delivery around off, probably the top spinner. Tejasvi Dahiya gets an outside edge and the keeper puts down a regulation catch. That's a heartbreak for Kuldeep Yadav. He deserved a hat-trick. Has bowled with a lot of heart today

Axar Patel to Tejasvi Dahiya, out Bowled!! He played a rusty knock in the previous match against Mumbai Indians. And departs without contributing much today. This was flatter through the air around off
