But since then, their top order has failed and as a result they have lost three matches in a row. Rajasthan Royals too started the tournament almost chasing down a big 200-plus total set by Punjab Kings before their bowlers won them the encounter against the Capitals in Mumbai. But like KKR, their top order has collapsed in their last couple of matches which means that RR have just one win from four matches in the tournament. Kolkata Knight Riders The KKR top 5 have just two 30-plus scores in the 15 innings they have batted in their last three matches in IPL 2021 – that sums up the story of the poor show of KKR’s batting in the tournament. The Chahar’s have wreaked havoc on their batting line-up. While Rahul picked four wickets and triggered a dramatic collapse after a 72-run opening wicket stand in Chennai, cousin Deepak ran through the top order for CSK in Mumbai. Nitish Rana has been the only batsman who has been consistent and got the runs at the top of the order. He has an aggregate of 164 including two fifties in four innings. Rahul Tripathi promised much after his sparkling fifty in the season opener but has failed thereafter. Shubman Gill has been the biggest disappointment for KKR so far in IPL 2021. The opener has just managed to score 69 runs in 4 matches. Skipper, Eoin Morgan needs to contribute in the middle order. It will not be a bad idea if he pushes himself to number 3. Morgan has scored just 45 runs in 4 innings at a strike rate of 112.5. The only positive for KKR from their defeat against CSK would be the return to form of star all-rounder Andre Russell. The West Indian showed glimpses of his form in 2019 and blasted six sixes on his way to 54 off just 22 deliveries. Dinesh Karthik and Pat Cummins also showed their prowess with the bat which augurs well for the KKR lower order. The bowling has been disappointing too. Russell has picked 7 wickets but got smashed all over and has an economy rate of 12.44 in the competition. Economy has been a major problem for KKR this season. None of their bowlers have an economy rate of under 8. Pat Cummins and Prasidh Krishna have not got the wickets with the new ball while the mystery seems to be disappearing from the bowling of Varun Chakravarthy. Rajasthan Royals RR are placed at the bottom of the table with the worst Net Run Rate. The top-order batting is a huge concern for the Royals. Sanju Samson’s tournament is following a similar script as last year. After starting the edition with a stunning hundred against the Punjab Kings he has registered scores of 4, 1 and 21. Manan Vohra has failed in all the four matches and has an aggregate of 42 while Dube, Buttler and Parag have clicked in just one of the four innings. There have been some individual sparks but the batting has failed as a collective. The Royals have lost at least two wickets in the powerplay in each of their four encounters not able to build any momentum at the start. There have not been more than two substantial performances with the bat in any of the matches for the Royals. The bowlers have performed marginally better than the batsmen. Chetan Sakariya has been impressive with 6 wickets at an economy of just under 8.5 and Jaydev Unadkat gave a Player of the Match performance against the Capitals. Mustafizur Rahman has been below par and gone at a rate of 9.35 per over.
