Star allrounder Shakib Al
Hasan on Sunday weaved his magic for Kolkata Knight Riders, marking after a
brilliant comeback for the franchise.
He bowled one of the most economical spells of IPL and completed a crucial runout to depart Kane Williamson in KKR’s do-or-die match against his previous franchise SRH.
RUN-OUT! ☝️

Shakib Al Hasan finished with just 20 runs off his quota of 4 overs as KKR saw SRH could only manage 67/4 in 13 overs.
Along with experienced
Sunil Narine, the pair did a lot of damage for SRH. The Bangladesh player was
drafted in the XI for the first instance as Andre Russell remained out due to
injury.
The allrounder was
overlooked despite his sensational bowling performance against Australia and
New Zealand in the recently-concluded series.
