Russell’s efforts to post a competitive total wasn’t a match for Prithivi’s fastest 50 this IPL
  1. Shubman Gill finally comes to the run scoring party after missing out on the first 6 games. That leaves us with just Manan Vohra and Quinton de Kock as the only opening batsmen with total accumulated runs less than 100 (minimum 4 matches). They both have got less than 50 runs in fact at the time this match was played.
  2. Sunil Narine (0) has now registered back to back ducks and his 8th in 70 innings in IPL. He has batted in positions 3-5 in his last 6 innings and has combined for just 17 runs, including three ducks.
  3. After a match winning unbeaten 47, Kolkata’s skipper Eoin Morgan was dismissed for a duck today and he has now scored less than 100 runs in his 7 innings.
  4. Prithvi Shaw rose to third positions in the leading run getters list with a rapid-fire innings of 82. He also broke Deepak Hooda’s record of scoring the fastest 50 in this IPL of just 18 deliveries. He also scored 6 boundaries in an over from Mavi.
  5. Shikhar Dhawan reclaimed the Orange cap with a knock of 46 and now he becomes the first batsman to score 300 or more runs in this IPL. By missing to score a 50, he has done this with just two knocks over 50 in 7 innings. All 3-batsmen chasing him to the top spot have all scored 3 fifties (Rahul, Shaw and du Plessis).
