Shubham Ranjane was the star with the bat for Texas, scoring a brisk unbeaten half-century (51 off 34 balls), including five boundaries and one six.

His innings featured seven boundaries and two sixes, showcasing his ability to accelerate under pressure.

Overall, it was an enthralling contest that saw impressive batting displays and strategic bowling efforts, ultimately culminating in a deserved win for Los Angeles Knight Riders.
