Kolkata vs Rajasthan, Match 54

Series:

IPL 2021

KOL
171/4 (20)
RAJ
85/10 (16.1)

Kolkata Knight Riders won by 86 runs.

Eoin Morgan: It was a convincing performance. Batting at difficult conditions, our boys did a great job. Gill & Venky gave us a great start & they have been the shining lights for us in the 2nd leg. 170+ was a good score. Shakib has been a great inclusion in the team. Like coming in place of someone like Andre Russell is not an easy task because Russell is a genuine batter & bowler. He is keeping up. Last season, he had a hamstring injury & recovered in just 2 weeks. He is working hard & we are doing everything we could. Just keeping it simple. Things that need to happen will happen

Powerplayer of the match: Lockie Ferguson

Most valuable asset of the match: Lockie Ferguson

Super striker of the match: Rahul Tripathi

Sanju Samson: The pitch was much better than the one in last game. It was better to bat on. 170+ could have been chased down but we couldn't come up for the day. We wanted to get a good start & have a powerful powerplay. The plans were already set but we couldn't execute that. In the whole season, we faced a lot of challenges. But proud the way we face it & the character that our players showed. Even if we lost some easy wins, the players gave their best. Missing out players like Jos, Stokes & Archer were quite challenging. But the players brought  a lot of positive vibes to the tea. They were ready to go out & win the matches for the team. Being a captain, changes the way I looked at my batting. I started looking more towards at the conditions, situations & more regarding my fellow batters in the team. Definitely I got so many runs but wanted to win more matches for my team.

Update:- Mumbai would need to win by a margin of around 171 runs against SRH if they want to qualify for IPL 2021 Playoffs
