Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) beat Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) by four runs in what was the first thriller of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024. Chasing 209 to win, the Sunrisers managed to reach 204/7 in their 20 overs at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata on Saturday, March 23. 

Heinrich Klaasen was the man that got the Hyderabad side in the mix as he along with Shahbaz Ahmed hit 47 off 12 when the team needed 60 off the last three overs. However, Harshit Rana turned out to be the hero as he sent both those batters packing in the final over, defending 13 runs, even as he was hit for a six on the very first ball. 

Earlier Kolkata posted 208/7 in their 20 overs after being asked to bat first. Andre Russell with his 64 off 25 balls and Phil Salt with his 54 at the top were the main scorers for the Knight Riders while T Natarajan took 3/32 in his four overs for the Hyderabad side.

KKR vs SRH LIVE SCORE, IPL 2024: Harshit Rana wins the thriller for Kolkata


Cummins is on strike and it is yet again a slower ball. No connection from Cummins and Harshit Rana has defended 7 off 5 balls to give Kolkata a thrilling four-run win to kick off their campaign. Spare thought for Klaasen too as he did everything he could steal victory out of the jaws of defeat.

Single now and Klaasen is on strike as five is needed off 2 balls. A slower ball takes the edge of Klaasen's bat as he went for the big shot without judging the merit of the ball and Suyash Sharma on short third-man has probably taken the biggest catch of his career. 5 needed off 1 now
