KOLKATA: Rajasthan Royals toyed with Kolkata Knight Riders to record a commanding nine-wicket victory and jump to third spot (12 points) on the points table in the IPL while almost shutting the playoff doors on their rivals (10 points) here on Thursday.
There were records galore at the Eden Gardens and the hosts found themselves on the receiving end of all those. Yuzvendra Chahal became IPL’s highest wicket-taker surpassing Dwaine Bravo’s tally of 183 to reach 187 wickets after scything through the KKR innings, finishing with four for 25.
