In the final over of the KKR innings, Pat Cummins tried to go the distance but didn't the enough connection and was caught by Riyan Parag just inside the fence. After taking the catch, Parag ran towards his leg-spinner Rahul Tewatia and they both posed for a fake selfie using the ball as the camera. Before Cummins, Parag had also grabbed a catch of KKR top scorer Rahul Tripathi and celebrated the wicket in the same manner.

Along from playing a whole range of shots, Riyan Parag also has some very innovative celebrations in his repertoire. Last year, he had celebrated his match-winning half-century against SunRisers Hyderabad with a Bihu dance.

Rajasthan Royals bowlers bowled brilliantly and didn't allow KKR batsmen to score freely. Chris Morris returned with the figures of four for 23, while Chetan Sakariya, Mustafizur Rahman and Jaydev Unadkat picked up a wicket each to restrict RR to a below-par score of 133/9 in their 20 overs.
