'Arey bhaijaan ye kya ho gaya' - Fans react as Rinku Singh helps KKR to clinch unbelievable victory against Gujarat Titans

In the 13th game of the Indian Premier League, Kolkata Knight Riders faced Gujarat Titans at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Sunday. Riding on Rinku Singh and Venkatesh Iyer's amazing performance with the bat, Kolkata Knight Riders continued their winning run in the IPL 2023.

Earlier, after winning the toss, Gujarat skipper Hardik Pandya decided to bat first on their home track. The decision went well with the team as the openers added 33 runs for the opening stand. Wriddhiman Saha scored 17 runs off 17 balls before getting dismissed by Sunil Narine.

After his dismissal, Sai Sudarshan, along with Shubman Gill, added 67 runs for the second wicket. Sudarshan, in his innings, scored 53 runs off 38 balls, while Gill scored 39 runs off 31 balls.

However, it was Vijay Shankar, who stole the show as he hammered a quick half-century to help Gujarat Titans to post a hefty total of 204/4 in 20 overs. Sunil Narine was the standout performer with the ball for visitors as he clinched three wickets, while Suyash Sharma clinched a wicket.

Rinku Singh shines in Kolkata's amazing run chase

Chasing 200-plus total, Kolkata got a troublesome start as both openers Rahmanullah Gurbaz and N Jagadeeshan were dismissed cheaply. KKR skipper, Nitish Rana, along with Venkatesh Iyer, added 100 runs for the third wicket and pulled the game again in KKR's favor.

However, Rashid Khan's amazing hat trick in the 17th over, once again, led the game to Gujarat's side. Rashid, firstly, dismissed Andre Russell for a duck and then clinched Sunil Naraine and Shardul Thakur to complete his 4th hat-trick in T20s.

However, this was not the end of the game as Rinku Singh had some other plans. In the last over, KKR needed 29 runs off six balls. Umesh Yadav gave the strike to Rinku on the first ball with a single. Now the equation was left with 28 needed off 5 ball. It looked like GT would easily win the game until Rinku hammered five back-to-back sixes to clinch an unbelievable victory.

Here is how fans react to KKR's amazing victory:

Just look at his physique he is not giant like Shivam still he somehow generated enough power to clear ropes 5 times in an over..
What an incredible talent ❤️
