Sharjah: It is never easy to chase a 200-plus target in a Twenty20 game. But Rajasthan Royals (RR) believed in themselves and won their IPL 2020 contest against Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) in Sharjah on Sunday (September 27). RR set a record by overhauling 223 scored by the KL Rahul-led side. After this game, the Board of Control for Cricket in India's (BCCI) president Sourav Ganguly has spoken as to why IPL is 'best league in the world'.
