Superb opening spell by KTK pacers saw RR crash to 32/3 after 6 with 40% COW. Watto and Menaria raised some hopes of recovery before Hodge ran through the middle order as RR were wiped out for just 97 in 18.3 overs with 20% COW. There was only one result possible and it was pretty clear as McCullum smashed 4 sixes as he raced to 29 off 12. Despite both openers falling early, KTK were 59/2 after 4 with 99% COW. Patel and Hodge did not go easy as they hammered away at hapless RR attack to end the match with 12.4 overs to spare. |
