Latest News :- The 31st match of the IPL 2024 T20 series was held on April 16 at 7.30 pm at Kolkata Eden Gardens Cricket Ground. In this there was a clash between Kolkata Knight Riders and Rajasthan Royals. Rajasthan won the toss and announced to bowl first. Phil Salt was out for Kolkata after scoring 10 runs in the beginning.

But on the contrary, the second opener Sunil Narine played aggressively and kept on scoring runs.

Angreesh Raghuvansi, the young player who came with him, made a partnership of 85 runs for the second wicket and was out after scoring 30 (18) runs. However, Sunil Narine continued to play brilliantly for this team and scored a brilliant half-century in 29 balls.

Crazy Feat: The then captain Shreyas Iyer tried to play aggressively and was out on 11 (7) runs. Similarly, the next star player Andre Russell was out after scoring 13 (10) runs. But along with him, Sunil Narine also faced the Rajasthan bowlers fiercely and scored 109 (56) runs with the help of 13 fours and 6 sixes.

He has been playing T20 cricket since 2011 and has played 503 matches so far. But after playing mostly as a lower-order tail-ender in his career, he has now scored a century in T20Is for the first time in his life. He has also made a record of being the first foreign player to score a century for Kolkata after 16 years.

Earlier in 2008, in the first match of the first year of IPL, New Zealand player Brendon McCullum had scored 158 runs for Kolkata. Sunil Narine has already taken a hat-trick wicket for Kolkata.

Through this, he has also created a unique record of becoming the third player in IPL history after Rohit Sharma and Shane Watson to score a hat-trick and a century.

In the upcoming match, Ringu Singh scored 20* (9) and gave a good finish. In this way, Kolkata scored 223/5 in 20 overs and for Rajasthan, Kuldeep Sen and Avesh Khan took maximum 2-2 wickets.
