IPL 2021: Rana and Tripathi star as Kolkata Knight Riders beat SunRisers Hyderabad

<p>Shubman Gill was the star for Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in their thumping win over Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in Abu Dhabi as the action in <a href="https://www.wionews.com/ipl">Indian Premier League (IPL) 2020</a> continued in the UAE. Gill scored 70 unbeaten off 62 deliveries to help KKR seal their first win in IPL 2020 as the Dinesh Karthik-led outfit chased 143-run target comfortably. Gill, with his unbeaten knock, broke a plethora of records as the youngster continued to impress with the bat.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Gill recorded a timing rating of 195, according to Cricviz Data – the highest-ever in IPL. Gill surpassed the likes of Hashim Amla (171), Rishabh Pant (163) and Kane Williamson (150) among others as the youngster comfortably paced his innings as per the situation of the game.&nbsp;</p>

IPL 2020: KKR register first win in tournament after beating SRH by 7 wickets

<p>Kolkata Knight Riders are all set to face Sunrisers Hyderabad on Saturday at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi. Both KKR and SRH lost their season opener and will be looking for redemption when they face each other in Abu Dhabi in a bid to mark their first win of <a href="https://www.wionews.com/ipl">IPL 2020</a>.</p>

<p>KKR and SRH had a batting order collapses in their last match against Mumbai Indians and Royal Challengers Bangalore respectively.
