SRK's Reaction To Last-Over IPL Drama Sums Up KKR vs RR Match
The match also saw KKR owner Shah Rukh Khan many different emotions.
It was the day of another last-over drama at the IPL 2024. Kolkata Knight Riders looked like pocketing the match against Rajasthan Royals at the Eden Gardens but Jos Buttler had some other idea. The RR star batter scored 107* as RR chased down a target of 224 - the highest ever in IPL history - on the last ball of the 20th over. With the win, RR consolidated their top spot with 12 points from seven matches while KKR are second with eight points from six matches.Â
The match also saw KKR owner Shah Rukh Khan many different emotions. When Sunil Narine scored century, SRK's joys knew no bounds. But then, as the last-over drama ensued with RR needing nine off six balls, a tense image of Shah Rukh was displayed on the screen.Â
The internet reacted to the photo.Â
Not a great day for KKR and Shahrukh Khan at the Eden Gardens.

Jos Buttler swung his bat merrily on way to a 60-ball 107 and single-handedly lifted Rajasthan Royals to a sensational two-wicket victory over Kolkata Knight Riders, pulling off the IPL's biggest run chase on Tuesday.
Asked to bat first, Sunil Narine's 109 off 56 balls powered hosts KKR to a formidable 223/6 in front of a packed Eden Gardens. But Buttler had other ideas as he dragged the Royals, dead an buried at 121/6 in the 13th over, past the target of 224 in the last ball of the game after the visitors needed 46 runs in the last three overs, and 28 in 12 balls.
