Batting first against Mumbai Indians (MI), KKR lost their 8 wickets for 80 runs in just 11.1 overs.
Flop show of KKR batsmen

The team’s young batsman Angkrish Raghuvanshi (26) scored the most runs, but he too was dismissed by Hardik Pandya. At the same time, Rinku Singh (17) and Manish Pandey (19) tried to handle the innings, but Mumbai bowlers did not give them any chance.
