Yesterday’s KKR vs RCB match was a perfect thrill as KKR won it by just 1 run. The Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) gave a tough fight to Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) while chasing a massive 223-run score. However, the night proved to be a heartbreaker for RCB, with a questionable dismissal and a nail-biting climax determined by 1 run.

Virat Kohli, the former RCB skipper, found himself in the eye of the storm early on. Harshit Rana's high full delivery eluded Kohli, but the ball bounced back to the bowler for a fairly easy catch. Kohli thinking of the delivery to be a beamer. Hawk-Eye, a new technology that determines no-balls for height, came into play. While replays revealed that the ball would have been below Kohli's waist if he had been in his crease, the dismissal remained because Kohli was a touch out of position. This provoked fury, with Reece Topley describing Kohli's ejection as a "grey area". Sidhu, a former cricketer, questioned the law, claiming it effectively legalized a beamer. He said I am damn sure that Virat Kohli was not out on that delivery. Many people believed that it was clear no ball.

Despite the setback, the RCB fought bravely. Will Jacks and Rajat Patidar attacked the KKR spinners, and their aggressive batting kept the RCB in contention. However, Andre Russell, the KKR all-rounder, changed the tide by dismissing both batters in rapid succession. The lower order continued to nibble away, with Karn Sharma's late sixes providing some optimism.

The tension was apparent as the match progressed to the last over. RCB needed 12 runs to win with one wicket left. Drama ensued when a controversial call went against RCB. Fans reacted on social media, claiming that the six that was hit by Suyash Prabhudessai was incorrectly referred to as a four. The replays were inconclusive, leaving the decision on the pitch. In the video, it was clearly seen that it was a hit for 6 but it was considered 4 by an umpire.

RCB fell agonizingly short of their target of two runs off the last ball. The Eden Gardens erupted in cheers as KKR claimed a narrow one-run victory. The defeat left RCB's playoff prospects hanging by a thread and extended their losing record to six games.

The KKR vs RCB match was a night of high-voltage match, overshadowed by controversy and determined by the smallest of margins. While KKR celebrated a thrilling victory, RCB was left to wonder what might have been, with the memory of Kohli's departure and the dubious call remaining in the air. The event has sparked debate about the game's developing rules and the need for clarity in such instances. After the match, Virat Kohli was seen talking to the umpire about the controversial decision.
