Although <strong>Nitish Rana<\/strong> (51) was the top-scorer for the Kolkata-based side in the last-over thriller, <strong>Andre Russell<\/strong> stole the show with his quickfire 42 off just 23 deliveries and played a significant role in KKR\u2019s win. Among bowlers, <strong>Varun Chakravarthy<\/strong> picked up three wickets for his side in the first innings. At the same time, despite <strong>Jos Buttler<\/strong>\u2018s sensational 95 runs off 59 balls and <strong>Sanju Samson<\/strong>\u2018s powerful 66-run knock, RR failed to defend the mammoth 214-run total and eventually lost the contest.
