Last-ball finishes

THE first week saw no matches going down to the wire. However, this week witnessed the fate of four matches finishing on the final ball on four consecutive days. On Sunday, Rinku Singh handed Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) a dramatic last-ball finish over defending champions Gujarat Titans (GT), while on Monday and Tuesday, Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) and Mumbai Indians (MI) emerged victorious with one needed off the final ball. However, on Wednesday, with five required off the last ball, skipper MS Dhoni failed to take hosts Chennai Super Kings (CSK) over the line against Rajasthan Royals (RR).
