Ishant Sharma’s inclusion in the KXIP playing XI again proved to be futile as he leaked 41 runs in his 4 overs without taking any wickets. He bowled well in his first three overs giving away only 21 runs at an economy rate of 7.00.

However, he leaked 20 runs in the penultimate over as he had no answer to ‘Hurri’-Kane Williamson’s aggressive yet classy batting. That one over made all the difference and shifted the momentum of the game completely away from the KXIP. Such was the impact of that over that KXIP could not recover from it.
