Shubman Gill’s no look six
Nitish Rana helped KKR to get off to a rollicking start with Shubman Gill playing second fiddle to the southpaw. Nitish Rana’s intent was inspiring and exploited the fielding restrictions to the fullest.
Shubman Gill on the other hand played an amazing shot which was just an extension of on-drive that went over long on for a massive six. The shot caught the attention of many fans because of the swag with which Shubman Gill played it. He made perfect contact with the ball and didn’t raise his head to see the ball travelling.

SRH bowlers struggled big time to restrict the dashing opener in Nitish Rana. The southpaw walked out with the only intent to smash bowlers to all the parts of the ground. He didn’t take much risk against Rashid Khan but took advantage of all the other bowlers to make the scoreboard ticking.
KKR in commanding position
Chennai track sported a dry look and it was expected that the wicket would be a difficult one to bat but Nitish Rana and Rahul Tripathi made sure that they score at a rapid pace and punish all the bad deliveries to post an above par total.
It will be a huge task for SRH to chase anything above 170 on this track.
