In a thrilling encounter between Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and Punjab Kings (PBKS) at the iconic Eden Gardens, Sunil Narine produced a moment of sheer brilliance that swung the Rilee Rossouw straight to bed.

Watch the video here:


Rilee Rossouw, the dynamic left-hander, was in ominous form, smashing his way to a quickfire 26 off just 16 deliveries. However, Narine, known for his guile and crafty spin, had other plans. Bowling with precision and control, he lured Rossouw into a false stroke. 

With a deceptive delivery outside the off stump, Narine induced a top edge off Rossouw's bat. The ball spiraled high into the Kolkata night sky, only to be safely pouched by KKR skipper Shreyas Iyer, stationed at mid-off.

This crucial breakthrough not only shattered a threatening partnership but also provided KKR with much-needed respite. Narine's dismissal of Rossouw was akin to tucking a batsman to bed, signaling the end of his destructive innings.

As the stadium erupted in cheers, it was evident that Narine's magical moment had turned the tide slightly in KKR's favor. With PBKS now at 206/3, Shashank Singh and Jonny Bairstow are cruising towards victory.
