Yuvraj Singh and Virat Kohli were looking good for Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in chase of 151 against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in the 11th match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2014. Sunil Narine was called upon to bowl the twelfth over, and he responded by bowling another tight over, going for just three runs off it.
In the eleventh over, Yuvraj pulled Umesh Yadav over midwicket for six. Kohli followed it up by hitting Yadav thorough midwicket for a boundary to make it 13 runs off the over.

Jacques Kallis was brought on to bowl the eighth over of the innings and managed to keep things quiet for the first couple of balls till Takawale managed to get a boundary down to third man. Kallis got his revenge immediately, when he got Takawale LBW for a well-made 40 off just 28 balls. On the first ball of the next over, Parthiv was beaten by the bounce and the leading edge flew straight to Chris Lynn.
