Watch: Arshdeep Singh Gets Emotional After Almost Defending Six Runs In Last Over Against Rinku Singh And Andre Russell
While Punjab Kings will be disappointed with the loss, KKR will take heart from their victory and look to build on their momentum in the tournament.
The IPL 2023 has been an exciting tournament with intense games that have kept the fans on the edge of their seats. One such game was witnessed on May 8 at the Eden Gardens between Kolkata Knight Riders and Punjab Kings, where the hosts managed to win by 6 wickets off the last ball of the match, thanks to Rinku Singh's boundary.
Arshdeep Singh, the left-arm PBKS pacer, was left with the task of defending just 6 runs off the last over, after Sam Curran gave away 20 runs in the 19th over. Arshdeep, known for his accuracy in death overs, managed to give away just 4 runs in the first 5 balls, leaving KKR needing 2 off the last delivery. Rinku Singh, in fine form, hit a widish full toss towards the fine leg boundary to seal the victory for KKR.
