In an exciting one-run victory over Royal Challengers Bengaluru on Sunday in the IPL 2024, Kolkata Knight Riders successfully protected 21 runs in the final over. With the last ball of the 19th over seeing Andre Russell dismiss the in-form Dinesh Karthik, things were dire for the already desperate RCB. But Karn Sharma, who had hammered three sixes against KKR’s Rs 24.75 crore acquisition Mitchell Starc, got them back into the game. The drama didn’t finish there, as Starc gave KKR the lead by dismissing Karn on the penultimate delivery of the over. Lockie Ferguson was run out before he could complete the second run, and RCB narrowly lost the match despite needing three runs to win on the final ball.
