Venkatesh Iyer's relentless fifty served as the driving force behind Kolkata Knight Riders' commanding seven-wicket triumph over Royal Challengers Bengaluru in their recent IPL encounter. Venkatesh's impressive innings of 50 runs off 30 balls, coupled with the explosive performances from openers Sunil Narine (47 off 22 balls) and Phil Salt (30 off 20 balls), propelled the Knight Riders beyond the 183-run target set by RCB. This target had been constructed around Virat Kohli's masterful unbeaten 83.
