Both Rinku Singh and Andre Russell looked clueless against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) spinners at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata on Saturday, March 22.
Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) lost the toss and they were invited to bat first in the match. Opening batsman Quinton de Kock got out in the first very over of the innings, but captain Ajinkya Rahane joined forces with Sunil Narine to stabilize the innings.
Rinku Singh and Andre Russell, in particular, disappointed the Kolkata Knight Riders the most as despite possessing the great ability to play big shots in the end overs, they bagged low scores.
Andre Russell was dismissed in the very next over for 3-ball 4 by young spinner Suyash Sharma. On the 4th ball of the 16th over, Suyash bowled an 87kmph googly to the West Indies powerhouse that landed on the fourth stump and spun back sharply to rattle the stumps of Andre Russell.

Rinku is batting phenomenally - Ajinkya Rahane
"Rinku Singhis batting phenomenally. You are right about the debates of sending him up in the order and we are thinking about it. You will see him bat up. Today we thought, after we lost my and Venkatesh's wicket, that Angrkrish was better suited there."
"We have just played one game. The guys who are batting in the middle order, they are dangerous and explosive. They have played many matches like this. This is a long tournament, we need to back the players."
"They bowled pretty well in the second phase. Little two-paced and the slower ones made it difficult for us. Not so much for the spinners, but when the fast bowlers rolled their arms over, it was gripping. We have a really good bowling attack and we can pull it off."
