Cameron Green made an immediate impact, taking his first wicket of this IPL in his very first over against Rishabh Pant, the LSG skipper. The breakthrough came early and gave Kolkata Knight Riders a strong start with the ball.<\/p>\n
Green was brought into the attack with intent and responded straight away. His opening over produced the key wicket, breaking the rhythm of the chase and lifting the home side. It was a moment that shifted early momentum towards Kolkata Knight Riders. An over where everything happened \u2013 a six conceded, a wicket taken, a wide and a no-ball all rolled into one.<\/p>\n
Lucknow Super Giants replied with 73 for 3 in 8.2 overs, needing 109 runs from 70 balls. The chase took a hit with the early loss of captain Rishabh Pant, who was caught for 10 off 9 deliveries.<\/p>\n
Ayush Badoni remained unbeaten on 22 from 15 balls and tried to keep the innings on track. But with wickets falling and the asking rate climbing, LSG were under pressure and needed a steady partnership to stay in the contest.<\/p>\n
KKR kept control through disciplined bowling, not allowing easy scoring. Green\u2019s early strike set the tone, and the home side continued to apply pressure as the chase progressed.<\/p>\n
