Despite Shreyas Iyer's departure, KKR's spirits remained undampened as they continued to pile on the runs, ultimately reaching an impressive total of 262 for 6 in their allotted 20 overs. Even in Shreyas's absence, KKR's middle-order batsmen ensured the team maintained its momentum, setting a daunting target for Punjab Kings.
In the ongoing IPL clash at Eden Gardens, Kolkata Knight Riders unleashed a barrage of batting prowess, accumulating a formidable total of 261/6 against Punjab Kings. Spearheaded by the explosive partnership of Sunil Narine and Phil Salt, KKR's top order has proven to be a dominant force throughout the season, fortified by the firepower of Andre Russell and the resilience of Ramandeep Singh.
While Kolkata Knight Riders comfortably sit at the second spot in the IPL table with an impressive record of five wins from seven matches, Punjab Kings find themselves languishing at the ninth place, struggling with only two victories in eight encounters.

As the IPL season progresses, the outcome of these clashes could significantly impact the fortunes of both teams in their pursuit of playoff contention.
