That's it! Quinton de Kock finishes it off with a six as Kolkata Knight Riders beat Rajasthan Royals by eight wickets! What a performance this has been from the defending champions who have bounced right back from the loss to RCB. Opting to bowl first, KKR restricted Rajasthan Royals to just 151/9 with the bowlers putting in an excellent effort. Varun Chakaravarthy took 2/17, Moeen Ali picked up 2/23 while Harshit Rana and Vaibhav Arora scalped two each as well as KKR bowlers did incredibly well, on a pitch that assisted the spinners. In the run chase, they never looked to be in any sort of trouble with Quinton de Kock showing why he was such a highly-rated T20 player. After not making much of an impact in the first game, he finishes off with 97* off 61 balls. He might not have scored a century but this innings will give him a lot of confidence heading into the upcoming matches. For Rajasthan Royals, it is a second consecutive loss and they will aim at bouncing back when they face Chennai Super Kings at the same venue on March 30. Meanwhile, KKR will be high on confidence when they take on Mumbai Indians on March 31.
