Some Kings players demonstrated their abilities, but their contributions were too brief to significantly impact the game. Prabhsimran Singh, for instance, scored three sixes and three fours in 35 balls, which elevated the Kings innings. He was dismissed before the powerplay ended.
While defending their poor score, Livingstone took 2/19 from his four overs. Harshal Patel and Sam Curran also contributed to this effort, with Harshal taking 3 wickets and Curran 1. Despite this, the Kings had already lost too much ground with the bat.
