Yuzvendra Chahal, a leg-spinner for Rajasthan, has now taken more IPL wickets than any other player in league history as he helped the Royals climb back into the top four.
At Eden Gardens, the Rajasthan Royals defeated the Kolkata Knight Riders by nine wickets to defeat them and end a three-game losing streak.
By grabbing 4-25, Chahal increased his season total of wickets to 21 and broke Dwayne Bravo’s record of 183.
When Chahal’s bowling collapsed Kolkata at 8-149, youthful left-handed opener Yashasvi Jaiswal (98 not out) slammed a 13-ball fifty and accelerated Rajasthan to 1-151 in just 13.1 overs.
