Kolkata: Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) captain Nitish Rana has been fined after his team maintained a slow over-rate during their Indian Premier League (IPL) match against Punjab Kings ( PBKS ) at the Eden Gardens here on Monday night.
 
As it was his team’s first offence of the season under the IPL’s Code of Conduct relating to minimum over-rate offences, Rana was fined Rs. 12 lakh, according to IPL statement.
 
Meanwhile, the match between KKR and PBKS ended in the latter's win in a last-over thriller and it was their star duo of Andre Russell and Rinku Singh who took KKR home with the latter hitting the winning run on the last ball of the match.
 
Rinku Singh did Rinku Singh things as he sent the Eden Gardens into a frenzy by providing yet another sensational finish with a four off the last ball to win a thriller for Kolkata Knight Riders in Kolkata.
 
A collective batting effort from KKR saw Nitish Rana lead from the front with a crucial knock of 51(38) before Andre Russell (42 off 23) and Rinku Singh (21 not out off 10) provided the final flourish to win the fifth match of the season for KKR.
 
Earlier, a composed knock of 57(47) from captain Shikhar Dhawan, coupled with blistering cameos from Shahrukh Khan (21 not out off 8) and Harpreet Brar (17 not out off 9) propelled PBKS to a competitive 179/7. (UNI)
