Kolkata Knight Riders

Batting R B 4s 6s SR
Sunil Narinest Heinrich Klaasen b Krishnappa Gowtham 4 2 1 0 200
0.2
K Gowtham to S Narine, OUT! Gone next ball! Goodbye, thanks for coming, says Gowtham, who has the last laugh. He tosses this one up outside off, Narine fails to abstain from coming down the track. Does so and misses the ball completely. As easy as stumpings come, Klaasen takes it and whips the bails off to start the celebration for Rajasthan.
Chris Lynnc & b Shreyas Gopal 18 22 2 0 81.82
7.6
S Gopal to C Lynn, OUT! The fact that Lynn is not at his comfortable best against spin could now be written in bold letters. This dismissal adds fuel to the fact. Gopal dishes out another wrong one around off, it isn't too full in length. Lynn goes back to punch it. All he ends up doing is offer a straightforward catch to Gopal, who accepts it gleefully. Kolkata slide further.
Robin Uthappac & b Krishnappa Gowtham 3 7 0 0 42.86
2.1
K Gowtham to R Uthappa, OUT! Gowtham is having a fine, fine time this season in the Indian T20 League. Now he nets the big fish Robin Uthappa. A good player of spin, Gowtham deceives him with the pace here. Slows it through the air and lands it in line of the stumps. Uthappa looks to work it to the leg side and only manages to spoon an easy catch off the leading edge back to the bowler. Gowtham gobbles it up and the disappointment on Robin's face is writ large. Kolkata two down, early in the piece.
Nitish Ranac Jaydev Unadkat b Jofra Archer 3 5 0 0 60
3.4
J Archer to N Rana, OUT! Another one gone! Are we watching a wickets package here? Now the youngster Rana departs. He should have shown more patience to get set. Doesn't do so. Archer serves a length ball on the stumps, Nitish yet again looks to back away and hit it. Is deceived by the lack of pace and gets it off the inner half. Unadkat at mid on takes a couple of steps forward and takes it with ease. Lynn's first ball against Archer was similar, just that it didn't find the fielder then.
Dinesh Karthik (C) (W)c Ajinkya Rahane b Ben Laughlin 52 38 4 2 136.84
17.1
Ben Laughlin to D Karthik, OUT! Timely breakthrough for Rajasthan! 50th T20 catch for skipper Ajinkya Rahane to see the back of his opposite number. Full and outside off, Karthik looks to smash it into orbit. That he does, but sans a lot of distance. Rahane backtracks from covers and takes a good catch tumbling backwards. End of a top knock from DK.
Shubman Gillc Heinrich Klaasen b Jofra Archer 28 17 3 1 164.71
14.2
J Archer to S Gill, OUT! Archer has the last laugh, as he has the curry! On a length just outside off, Gill looks to back away and smash it. Gets a feather and Klaasen pouches it with ease. That ends the 55-run association with his skipper.
Andre Russellnot out 49 25 3 5 196
Javon Searlesc Jofra Archer b Ben Laughlin 2 5 0 0 40
19.4
Ben Laughlin to J Searles, OUT! Slower delivery undoes Searles! Length ball at 117.1 kph, Javon looks to go big. The ball takes the top edge and travels straight. Archer gets across from long off and takes a good running catch to his right. Perhaps Searles would've been better off giving the strike to his partner.

Rajasthan Royals

Batting R B 4s 6s SR
Ajinkya Rahane (C)c & b Kuldeep Yadav 46 41 4 1 112.2
14.1
K Yadav to A Rahane, OUT! KULDEEP STRIKES! A wicket right after the strategic break. The partnership is broken, just what Kolkata needed. The set Rahane is gone. Bit unfortunate in the way he's dismissed to be honest. Tossed up from Yadav, Rahane is down to sweep but gets it off the toe end back to the bowler who gobbles it up.
Rahul Tripathic & b Piyush Chawla 20 13 1 2 153.85
5.1
P Chawla to R Tripathi, OUT! Fine return catch by the leggie! A flatter googly, landing full and on middle, Tripathi gets forward to defend but ends up chipping it back off the higher part of his blade. Chawla reacts quickly to his right and plucks the ball from thin air. Finally a breakthrough for Kolkata! 123 needed off 89 balls.
Sanju Samsonc Javon Searles b Piyush Chawla 50 38 4 2 131.58
16.5
P Chawla to S Samson, OUT! The set batsman has been sent back. Piyush Chawla gets the all-important breakthrough. The quicker leg break, doesn't turn much and Samson goes back to pull. Lofts it over wide mid on, lot of height, not enough distance, and it's taken by Searles out in the deep after moving to his right. Game changer?
Heinrich Klaasen (W)not out 18 18 1 0 100
Stuart Binnyc Chris Lynn b Prasidh Krishna 0 3 0 0 0
17.6
P Krishna to S Binny, OUT! Binny departs! Krishna delivers a dipping full toss in the line of the stumps, Stuart goes down to sweep but is a bit early into it. As a result, his bottom hand comes off the handle and he spoons a simple catch to Chris Lynn at backward square leg. Probably the pressure got to him, he walks back without disturbing the scoreboard.
