Quinton de Kock (W) c Zeeshan Ansari b Pat Cummins 1 6 0 0 16.67

1.5

Pat Cummins to Quinton de Kock, OUT! IN THE AIR AND TAKEN! Skipper Pat Cummins bowls according to his field and gets the breakthrough in his first over! He bangs it into the surface, on the middle stump line. Quinton de Kock stays on the back foot and attempts to pull it behind square leg, but gets the timing incorrect. Does go through the shot aerially, off the higher part of the bat. The ball sails only as far as Zeeshan Ansari stationed at deep square leg. He runs in a few steps forward and takes a simple catch on his haunches. Quinton de Kock departs on 1 (6). KKR are 14/1.

Sunil Narine c Heinrich Klaasen b Mohammad Shami 7 7 0 1 100

2.3

Mohammad Shami to Sunil Narine, OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Sunil Narine is in total surprise with the umpire's finger being raised up on the appeal from Shami. Looks at Rahane in hope, and then decides not to take the referral. Again, KKR lose both their openers very cheaply! Shami spears it across off, on a very fuller length, Sunil Narine bends low to carve it out to the off side, but gets a thick outside edge. The ball carries back to Heinrich Klaasen who takes a sharp catch, diving low to his left. Sunil Narine departs and KKR are 16/2 now.

Ajinkya Rahane (C) c Heinrich Klaasen b Zeeshan Ansari 38 27 1 4 140.74

10.6

Zeeshan Ansari to Ajinkya Rahane, OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! A big wicket in the context of this game! Zeeshan breaks this established partnership and KKR lose their third wicket on 97. Zeeshan slows it up, and lands fuller, just outside off. It pitches and spins off the deck. Ajinkya Rahane is a tad bit early to play the reverse sweep. The ball grazes Ajinkya's gloves and lobs to the right of the keeper. Heinrich Klaasen reacts quickly and moves to the direction of the ball. Takes a fine catch.

Angkrish Raghuvanshi c Harshal Patel b Kamindu Mendis 50 32 5 2 156.25

12.4

Kamindu Mendis to Angkrish Raghuvanshi, OUT! IN THE AIR AND GONE! A sensational catch by Harshal Patel. Another important wicket for SRH. Kamindu gives the ball some air, and lands on a fuller length, just outside off. Angkrish Raghuvanshi comes charging down the track and tries to loft it inside out over cover. But doesn't quite get his bat properly under the ball and ends up slicing it over backward point. Harshal Patel comes running forward as the ball dips ahead of him. He dives forward and scoops it before the grass, with his fingers underneath the ball. After several checks, the third umpire also deems that it is a fair catch. KKR have slipped from 97/2 to 106/4 as Raghuvanshi departs for 50 (32).

Venkatesh Iyer c Aniket Verma b Harshal Patel 60 29 7 3 206.9

19.3

Harshal Patel to Venkatesh Iyer, OUT! TAKEN! Harshal Patel gets a wicket! Venkatesh Iyer walks back after a smashing knock of 60 off just 29 balls, lighting up the Eden Gardens. This is a slower one, full and on middle. Iyer shuffles across in his crease and looks to slog it down the ground. However, he mistimes it a bit as the ball goes miles up in the air. Aniket Verma at long on settles under it and takes a good catch. KKR 197/5 now!

Rinku Singh not out 32 17 4 1 188.24

Andre Russell run out (Heinrich Klaasen) 1 2 0 0 50

19.6

Harshal Patel to Andre Russell, OUT! RUN OUT! An anti-climactic end to the innings! Harshal Patel bowls a slower bocuner, on off. Andre Russell goes for the pull early and misses. He sets off to steal a bye but is sent back. Heinrich Klaasen, the keeper, collects and puts in an underarm throw to hit the stumps at the batter's end. The replay shows that Dre Russ is short of his crease. Kolkata Knight Riders finishes on exactly 200/5!

Travis Head c Harshit Rana b Vaibhav Arora 4 2 1 0 200

0.2

Vaibhav Arora to Travis Head, OUT! CAUGHT! Vaibhav Arora provides an early breakthrough on his second ball only, and the dangerous Travis Head is back into the hut! Arora bowls it on a good length and outside off, trying to keep it away from the batter's arc. Travis Head swings at it and mistimes it highly in the air towards mid off. Harshit Rana backtracks a bit and takes it with both hands just outside the circle before tumbling onto the ground. SRH are 4/1, and Head is gone for 4(2).

Abhishek Sharma c Venkatesh Iyer b Harshit Rana 2 6 0 0 33.33

1.6

Harshit Rana to Abhishek Sharma, OUT! CAUGHT! Sunrisers Hyderabad lose their second in the second over only, and they are into early trouble in this big chase. Harshit bowls it on a good length and well outside off, with pace taken off, and tries to keep it away from the batter. Abhishek Sharma looks to cut it but manages to get a thick outside edge only as the ball goes to the first slip where Venkatesh Iyer fumbles in the first attempt but takes it in the second one with both hands. KKR are 9/2 and Abhinav Sharma is gone for 2(6).

Ishan Kishan c Ajinkya Rahane b Vaibhav Arora 2 5 0 0 40

2.1

Vaibhav Arora to Ishan Kishan, OUT! CAUGHT! Kolkata Knight Riders are all over Sunrisers Hyderabad now as they have taken the third wicket, and the skipper, Ajinkya Rahane, is pumped up! Arora picks up his second wicket and bowls it slightly fuller and well outside off, gets it to shape away from the batter. Ishan Kishan wants to cash in on this width offered as he comes forward and drives it hard. The ball goes off the bottom part of the bat and towards cover. Ajinkya Rahane moves to his left a bit and takes it with outstretched hands. A brilliant catch to end the inning of Kishan as he goes for 2 (5) and KKR are 9/3.

Nitish Kumar Reddy c Sunil Narine b Andre Russell 19 15 2 1 126.67

6.4

Andre Russell to Nitish Kumar Reddy, OUT! TAKEN! Dre Russ's golden arm works again for KKR! Pitched up and on middle, there to be hit. Nitish Kumar Reddy can slog it anywhere on the ground, but he is a bit early into his shot and half-heartedly flicks it uppishly and straight down the throat of long on. Sunil Narine takes a few steps forward and gobbles it up. The bowling change brings in another wicket for the hosts, and SRH are 44/4 now!

Kamindu Mendis c sub Anukul Roy b Sunil Narine 27 20 1 2 135

9.3

Sunil Narine to Kamindu Mendis, OUT! TAKEN! Sunil Narine strikes! Once again, the strategic break brings in a wicket for the fielding side. This is another off-break, short and on off, turns away. Kamindu Mendis tries to heave it away but has to drag it and fails to get the timing right. It flies straight towards deep mid-wicket, where Anukul Roy (Sub) takes a fine catch. Sunrisers Hyderabad are in deep, deep trouble now.

Heinrich Klaasen (W) c Moeen Ali b Vaibhav Arora 33 21 2 2 157.14

14.4

Vaibhav Arora to Heinrich Klaasen, OUT! CAUGHT! This should be the game for Kolkata Knight Riders as the last hope of Sunrisers Hyderabad, Heinrich Klaasen, is gone for 33 (21) and they still need 89 runs off the last 32 balls! Arora picks up his third wicket of the night as he bowls it on a short of a length, angling into the body of the batter. He takes the pace off, and Heinrich Klaasen goes on the back foot to pull it. He mistimes it as the ball comes later on than he expected and goes off the top edge. The ball lobs up towards short fine leg, where Moeen Ali takes a few steps to his left and takes a simple catch.

Aniket Verma c Venkatesh Iyer b Varun Chakaravarthy 6 6 1 0 100

10.4

Varun Chakaravarthy to Aniket Verma, OUT! CAUGHT! Sunrisers Hyderabad lose their sixth, and Varun Chakaravarthy picks up his first wicket of the night! He switches to over the wicket again and bowls it on a dragged length, around off, keeping the pace of the ball a bit quicker. Aniket Verma clears his front leg and looks to slog it across towards mid-wicket. He mistimes it off the cue end of the bat and the fielder Venkatesh Iyer in the deep takes a few steps forward and takes it around his waist height.

Pat Cummins (C) c Harshit Rana b Varun Chakaravarthy 14 15 2 0 93.33

15.1

Varun Chakaravarthy to Pat Cummins, OUT! IN THE AIR AND GONE! CAUGHT! Every time the ball has gone uppish, it has found the hands in the field! Varun dishes out a full-length delivery around the off pole. It lands and bounces a bit off the deck. Pat Cummins clears his front leg and tries to take on the long on fielder. Lofts it up in the air but mistimes it off the inner half of the bat and offers a straightforward catch to Harshit Rana at long on. Skipper Cummins too departs now, and SRH are 114/8, and Simarjeet Singh comes out to bat now.

Harshal Patel c & b Andre Russell 3 5 0 0 60

16.4

Andre Russell to Harshal Patel, OUT! IN THE AIR AND GONE! CAUGHT AND BOWLED! Third consecutive defeat for SRH! A complete performance by Kolkata Knight Riders as they defended their fortress of Eden Gardens! Dre Russ bashes on that in-between length by taking the pace off, just around off. Harshal Patel swings months early to pull it into the stands over the leg side but mistimes it badly, over the bowler. Andre Russell calls for his catch, moves slightly to his left and settles under it. Takes a safe catch. KOLKATA KNIGHT RIDERS WIN BY A HUGE MARGIN OF 80 RUNS!

Simarjeet Singh b Varun Chakaravarthy 0 1 0 0 0

15.2

Varun Chakaravarthy to Simarjeet Singh, OUT! KNOCKED HIM OVER! VARUN CHAKARAVARTHY IS ON A HAT TRICK! A googly from Varun now, pitching outside off on a fractional fuller length. It lands and bites off the deck, spins miles into the right-hander. Simarjeet Singh lunges out to block it forward but plays all over the wrong line, and the ball sneaks through the bat and pad gap to crash into the wickets.
