Man of the match: Chris Gayle
KXIP captain Ravichandran Ashwin ‘Mankaded’ Rajasthan Royals opener Jos Buttler while he was in full form. ‘Mankading’ is a rare form of dismissal wherein a bowler runs out the non-striker as he leaves the crease before the ball is delivered. This has happened for the first time in IPL history. Buttler was very disappointed.
KXIP opener Chris Gayle has become the fastest batsman to complete 4,000 runs in 112 innings in IPL. He has crossed David warner who had taken 114 innings to reach 4,000 runs.
