Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) were second best against Gujarat Titans (GT), but one of their bowlers moved up the top 10 bowlers list after picking up a wicket during their Indian Premier League outing. 

 

Umesh Yadav, who started the season exceptionally brightly but has since faded off, scalped the wicket of Wriddhiman Saha and moved above Khaleel Ahmed, Avesh Khan, and Wanindu Hasaranga, all of whom have 11 wickets. This is because of Umesh's better economy rate of 7.43. 

 

Meanwhile, GT's Mohammad Shami, who bagged two wickets against KKR, also entered the top 10 bowlers list, moving above Punjab kings' (PBKS) Rahul Chahar to ninth.
