Chennai (Tamil Nadu) [India], April 9 (ANI): Star England player Phil Salt became the fifth Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) batter to get dismissed on the first ball of the match in the history of the Indian Premier League (IPL).
In their match against Chennai Super Kings, Salt was dismissed on the first ball of the right-arm seamer Tushar Despande at the MA Chidambaram Stadium here on Monday.

CSK continued domination at their fortress as they cruised home without really breaking a sweat, ending KKR's unbeaten run in this tournament. Chennai skipper Gaikwad remained unbeaten at 67 as he slammed the winning runs for the team.
All-rounder Ravindra Jadeja was awarded the Player of the Match award for his outstanding bowling performance. (ANI)
