The Kolkata Knight Riders were going hell for leather in their IPL 2024 match against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru on Sunday but against the run of play, Cameron Green pulled off a stunner.
KKR's in-form batter Angkrish Raghuvanshi tried to flick one over mid-wicket only to find Green. The 6 feet 5 inches tall Aussie cut Raghuvanshi's innings short on 3 as he took a one-hand stunner to send him back.
That was the 3rd wicket KKR lost in quick succession after a flying start and went from being 56 for no loss to 75/3.
Earlier, Faf du Plessis won the toss and put the Knight Riders into bat.
RCB made three changes to their eleven, bringing in pacer Mohammed Siraj, all-rounder Cameron Green and leg-spinner Karn Sharma.
KKR entered the match with no changes to their eleven from the last match.
