The 30th Match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 was a high-voltage game, which saw Rajasthan Royals (RR) winning a close game against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR). Though the Kolkata camp gave a tough fight, RR managed to get over the line against KKR, who lost their third match on the trot. KKR skipper fought brilliantly but couldn’t take his team over the line. After his dismissal, Shreyas Iyer had a heated conversation with KKR Coach Brendon McCullum over his dismissal.
Kolkata Knight Riders started their campaign on a winning note as they registered a dominating win over Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the opening encounter. They won 3 out of the 4 opening games they played, however, post that, they have lost 3 consecutive games.

After winning the toss, Shreyas Iyer opted to bowl but the decision turned out to be a nightmare as the RR batter smashed the KKR bowlers all over the park. KKR was given a pretty tough target of 218 runs. The KKR batsmen were going fine about the task in hand till the 17th over, but things went haywire as Chahal picked up a hat-trick. Shreyas became Chahal’s first scalp, followed by Shivam Mavi and Cummins to complete the hat-trick.
