Kolkata Knight Riders won their opening game of IPL 2024 against Sunrisers Hyderabad by four runs. KKR made 208-7 and, after a scare, eventually restricted SRH to 204-7 at the Eden Gardens. Andre Russell stole the show with a vintage performance, scoring an unbeaten 64 off 25 and taking two wickets with the ball.
Their second game will be an away match, against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru on March 29.
Kolkata finished runners-up in 2021, but before that, they won the title in 2012 and 2014. A decade later, with Gautam Gambhir back at the helm of affairs, albeit in a coaching role this time, they will want to clinch their third title.
