Kolkata Knight Riders achieved an epic milestone when they scored a massive score of 272 runs in the ongoing clash against Delhi Capitals, but what is more important is they had a chance to not only break IPL highest score, but also break it in the span of just 4 days.
Sunrisers Hyderabad registered the highest IPL score against Mumbai Indians when they gave a massive target of 277 runs. Although KKR missed an opportunity to break the record, they still scored the second highest score in the IPL history.

Talking about their batting spectacular, It all started with Sunil Narine’s blitzkrieg at the top, claiming his highest score in T20 cricket while at it and his Caribbean partner Russell did what he does best at the end. In the middle of this bonfire was an 18 year-old Angkrish Raghuvanshi who looked like a man hungry for an opportunity to put on a theatre of fearless batting masterclass.
Did DC bowl that badly? They were poor with their execution and add to that the non-DRS moments which cost them dear.
