All-rounder Shardul Thakur was in carnage mode on Thursday as he fired the joint fastest fifty of the season to power Kolkata Knight Riders to a massive 81-run win over Royal Challengers Bangalore in their first home game. Shardul took the RCB bowlers to the sword as his belligerent 29-ball 68 and century stand with Rinku Singh (46) lifted KKR to a towering 204 for 7.
