IPL 2018, RR vs KKR: 5 reasons why Rajasthan lost

Ad

#2 Trial by spin

It is no secret that KKR’s bowling unit is heavily dependent on spinners. Out of their top 5 bowling options, 3 are spinners. Today as well, Dinesh Karthik went all out against Rajasthan with his spinners. Out of the 20 overs, a massive 14 were bowled by the spinners.

Although Narine had an off day, the likes of Kuldeep Yadav and Piyush Chawla more than made up for it. The part-time off-spin of Nitish Rana also yielded success as he conceded just 11 runs off his 2 overs and picked up the crucial wickets of Rahane and Short in the process.
