IPL 2018, KKR vs RR: 3 thing you might have missed 

#3 Underbowled pacers

With the opposition team boasting of power hitting overseas talents, Dinesh Karthik devised a strategy to bombard them with spinners at different stages of the game. He even opened the innings at both ends with spinners and kept a lid on the rate until Ajinkya Rahane went mayhem against Sunil Narine smashing four boundaries in the fourth over. He even bowled a part-timer Nitish Rana and got rewarded with the wickets of openers Ajinkya Rahane and D'Arcy Short.

Only 6 overs were bowled by pacers and was shared between Tom Curran and Shivam Mavi with the former bowling only couple. Andre Russell didn't bowl a single over and was not needed with the bat thanks to a brilliant partnership from Dinesh Karthik and Nitish Rana.
