Sunil Narine was the star of the with the bat and the ball as Kolkata Knight Riders beat Royal Challengers Bangalore in the Indian Premier League Eliminator on Monday.
Narine first impressed with the ball as his figures of 4/21 helped KKR restrict RCB to 138/7 in their 20 overs.
Later on when it seemed that RCB could make it a tight finish, Narine destroyed any hopes of a RCB comeback as scored 26 runs off 15 deliveries to completely end the game as a contest.
Narine who has been delivering the goods for KKR for so many years stepped up when it mattered the most and sent them to the Qualifier against Delhi Capitals.
Here are some of the best reactions to Narine’s performance.

Sunil Narine is the first off-spinner to pick a 4+ wicket haul in an IPL playoff match.

Prev best: 3/16 by R Ashwin v RCB in 2011 final#IPL2021 #RCBvKKR
#KKR has won 6 matches in #IPL2021 in UAE and Sunil Narine won the man of the match in three games. The MVP.

He has been one of my fav #IPL spin bowler #Sunilnarine ! Absolute master class in spin bowling. @KKRiders have had an amazing plan for each RCB batsman . #IPL2O21 …

It’s the night of knight riders! Into the Q2 and thoroughly deserve it. #SunilNarine the game changer of the match with the bowl first and then coming in superb striking. The bad luck for @RCBTweets continues in the playoffs.#RCBvsKKR @KKRiders #IPL2021

RCB didn't lose to a team called KKR, They lost to men called Sunil Narine and Daniel Christian.
