As long as Angkrish Raghuvanshi and captain Ajinkya Rahane were on the crease, the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) were in a commanding situation against the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) at the Eden Gardens.
Soon after their departure, the Purple brigade not only started to drop the hard-earned tempo, but some wickets as well. The wicket of Rinku Singh was a huge blow for the Knight Riders. In the ongoing IPL 2026 season, the middle-order batter, who played multiple match-winning knocks for the team in the past, was bowled out cleanly against the LSG pacer Avesh Khan.

The bell remained on the line of the stumps and took the bails off. There was barely any footwork from Singh, only a lazy swing of the bat. Rinku Singh departed for only 4 runs off 7 balls. Avesh Khan offered the batter a fiery send-off. KKR lost their fourth batter.
Your daily dose of cricket!
