3) Andre Russell’s last over against Kings XI Punjab
In the 32nd match of the IPL 2016, KKR and Kings XI Punjab locked horns at the Eden Gardens and the home team batting first put up a total of 164 on the board.
KXIP all-rounder Glenn Maxwell came back to form and threatened to take the game away from KKR as he scored a quick-fire 68 off just 42 balls. After his departure, Axar Patel’s cameo of 21 off just 7 balls brought KXIP back into the game.
But there was a twist to the tale. KKR’s prolific all-rounder Andre Russell showed his death-bowling skills and bowled a brilliant last over to set the match for the Kolkata franchise. He conceded only 4 runs in the all-important last over and also had a hand in the important run-out of Axar Patel. The West Indian also picked up a wicket to win the match for his team.
Kudos to Andre Russell!
