In a nerve-wracking encounter, Kolkata Knight Riders secured a dramatic one-run win over Royal Challengers Bangalore in the IPL 2024 clash. Despite a fierce last-over onslaught by Karn Sharma, KKR held their nerve to defend their imposing target of 222 runs. Phil Salt's aggressive start with 48 runs off 14 balls and Shreyas Iyer's composed fifty with 50 runs off 36 balls set the tone for KKR's innings, helping them post 222/6 in 20 overs. RCB fought back valiantly with half-centuries from Will Jacks (55 runs off 32 balls) and Rajat Patidar (52 runs off 23 balls) but fell short in the final over, managing to score 221 runs.
