Rinku Singh’s impressive unbeaten 83 off 50 balls saved Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in their Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 game against Lucknow Super Giants (LSG). Facing a tough situation, Singh’s innings helped KKR reach 155/7 at BRSABV Ekana Stadium in Lucknow.
KKR struggled early on with left-arm pacer Mohsin Khan taking 5-23, the best figures in the match. Singh’s crucial knock, featuring seven fours and five sixes, turned the game around for KKR, including a remarkable 26-run over against Digvesh Rathi.
The match saw KKR’s top order falter, with Tim Seifert and Ajinkya Rahane departing cheaply to Mohsin’s bowling. Despite the setbacks, Singh’s partnership with Cameron Green and late surge with Ramandeep Singh and Sunil Narine propelled KKR to a competitive total.
