Despite taking the first IPL 2023 hat-trick from Rashid Khan, Rinku Singh's last over performance overshadowed the match. Gujarat's Venkatesh Iyer had played a brilliant knock 83 in 40 balls which brought Kolkata closer to the chase.

The duo of Ventakesh and Nitish accelerated their gears in the 12th and 13th over where Rashid Khan and Yash Dayal went expensive with 13 and 17 runs respectively.
Just after the impressive 100-run partnership of the duo, Gujarat made the comeback in the match when Little sent back Nitish, who was looking good scoring 45 in 29 balls.
