PTI Photo PTI Published 16.05.26, 11:57 PM Finn Allen blasted a 35-ball 93, while Angkrish Raghuvanshi hit an unbeaten 44-ball 82 as Kolkata Knight Riders kept their playoff hopes alive with a 29-run win over Gujarat Titans in the IPL match here on Saturday.

Raghuvanshi then shared another 108 off 53 balls with Cameron Green (52 not out) to power KKR to a challenging 247 for 2.

Allen, Raghuvanshi and Green thump GT to keep KKR alive
Kolkata Knight Riders 247 for 2 (Allen 93, Raghuvanshi 82*, Green 52*) beat Gujarat Titans 218 for 4 (Gill 85, Buttler 57, Sai Sudharsan 53*, Narine 2-29) by 29 runsAfter five successive wins in conditions that weaponised their bowlers and masked their limitations with the bat, Gujarat Titans (GT) found their kryptonite at Eden Gardens. In near-perfect batting conditions, Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) ran away to 247 for 2, the highest total anyone has ever scored against GT.Finn Allen set the tone, hitting 10 sixes in 35 balls on his way to an awe-inspiring 93, and Angkrish Raghuvanshi and Cameron Green carried the baton with impressive unbeaten half-centuries. GT had their chances to minimise the punishment they took, but they put down four mostly straightforward catches, including two off Allen.Everything needed to go right for GT to be able to get to 248; the highest target they had previously chased down was 204. But after a frenetic start in which they rushed to 42 for no loss in three overs, they simply couldn't keep up with the required rate.B Sai Sudharsan, who provided much of that early impetus, retired hurt after taking a blow to the elbow, and returned to bat in the 17th over. In between, Shubman Gill and Jos Buttler scored half-centuries and put on a 128-run stand for the third wicket. But by the time Sai Sudharsan returned, the match was done and dusted, with GT needing an absurd 71 off 22 balls.The one man at the ground who could have pulled off that task was relaxing on KKR's bench: Allen, subbed out at the change of innings. The only sore point of the match for KKR, in the end, concerned the man who came on for Allen. Matheesha Pathirana made his first appearance of the season, but went off the field with a hamstring issue having bowled just 1.2 overs.Allen cancels out GT's toss advantageAt the toss, GT captain Gill suggested that the pitch might start out "sticky" before easing out, and he proved spot-on with his assessment. In the early overs, KKR's batters couldn't quite find their timing with Mohammed Siraj and Kagiso Rabada extracting a little bit of seam and a little bit of spongy bounce. The first two overs produced just eight runs.Allen got going with back-to-back fours off Siraj in the third over - one was off the inside edge - but could have fallen next ball had Jason Holder been able to cling onto a one-hander at extra-cover. Allen was on 14 at that point.The ball continued to do a little bit through the powerplay, and KKR ended ...
