Robin Uthappa brings up his half-century off just 24 deliveries for Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in Match 13 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2016 match against Kings XI Punjab (KXIP). But he was trapped in front off the bowling of leg-spinner Pardeep Sahu. He was dismissed for 53. Uthappa looked in fine touch throughout and has managed to cut loose right from the beginning. He has been well supported by his skipper Gautam Gambhir at the other end. Gambhir is also the leading run-scorer in this tournament so far. Uthappa will look to play his strokes and stay on till the end to ensure that KKR win big. As the tournament gets to the business end, the net run rate might come into play.
