Jos Buttler broke Virat Kohli’s IPL record by scoring a century against KKR. Following the match, the RR star singled out MS Dhoni.
On Tuesday, previous champions Rajasthan Royals were 178/7 at the conclusion of the 17th over while chasing Kolkata Knight Riders’ unlikely total of 224 in the first vs second match of the Indian Premier League season 2024. What exactly was the equation? Sanju Samson’s men needed 46 runs from the final 16 balls. Even though the asking price was increasing, the Knight Riders never saw themselves as the overwhelming favourites at Eden Gardens. Why? Because Jos Buttler was batting at 67 off 47 balls.Before RR faced KKR in the City of Joy, Buttler defeated Virat Kohli by blasting a stunning century to ace Rajasthan’s chase against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru.His undefeated century at Jaipur eclipsed Kohli’s score. The next match, against PBKS, was missed by the captain of England because of a niggle. RR chose to employ him exclusively as a hitter against KKR despite the fact that he was having trouble on Tuesday due to the Impact Player rule, which prevented him from taking the field.
