Having misplaced the toss, KKR produced a medical effort with the ball to dismiss SRH for 113, the lowest-ever complete in an IPL title conflict.
KKR chased down the goal of 114 with as many as 57 balls to spare. Venkatesh Iyer remained not out on 52 off 26 balls.
Mitchell Starc (2/14), Andre Russell (3/19), and Harshit Rana (2/24) had been probably the most profitable bowlers for the Knight Riders, as SRH merely failed to show up for the large recreation.
