That is all we have for you from this game. But do not go anywhere. The Mumbai-Delhi encounter has already begun...
A tough outing for all the bowlers but perhaps the dew came into play. Only Rashid Khan was at his best but Kolkata played him out well - just 1 wicket for 26 runs.
Hyderabad will be bitterly disappointed. They had the match in their grasp but let it slip towards the end very badly. The 18th over went for 19 by Kaul. The 19th went for 21 by Bhuvi. And Hyderabad could not recover at all. It was all Andre Russell magic, as he clobbered a 19-ball 49, staying unbeaten, with 4 fours and 4 sixes. Rana and Uthappa played their part, not letting the wickets fall and the match slip too much. However, had Hyderabad hung on to that chance of Uthappa, they might have come out trumps.
Phew. What a match. Unbelievable scenes at Eden. At the end of the 16th over in the first innings, Kolkata seemed down and out, with Hyderabad ready to touch 200. They pulled it back. At the end of the 16th over in the second innings, Kolkata seemed down and out again, needing 59 from the final 4 overs. But the end is what matters.
End of over 20 ( 20 Runs )KKR 183/4 19.4Shakib Al Hasan to Shubman Gill. SIX, SIX! Game, set and match! That is how they say in Tennis. Gill has ended the game in style.

End of over 19 ( 21 Runs )KKR 169/4 18.6Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Andre Russell. 1 run, Short and outside off, Russell slaps it towards sweeper cover for a single. 21 from this over, 19 from the previous, Kolkata are cruising!

17.5Siddarth Kaul to Andre Russell. FOUR, FOUR! Russell is unleashed. Width on offer outside off, he shows no mercy and spanks it through covers for a cracking boundary. This boy is very, very strong. Can he finish this over with one more big blow?
17.4Siddarth Kaul to Shubman Gill. 1 run, Slower one probably, landing fuller on off, Gill swings his bat and it goes off the inner half to deep mid-wicket for one. Two huge deliveries coming up...
17.3Siddarth Kaul to Andre Russell. 1 run, Blazed away but finds the fielder. A short of a length ball on off, angling in, Russell plunders his pull to deep mid-wicket for a run.
17.2Siddarth Kaul to Andre Russell. SIX, SIX! Two in a row! Game on. All the good work done by Kumar in the last over is going down the drain. A low full toss by Kaul, Andre lines himself and launches it over the bowler's head. 12 from the over already.
17.1Siddarth Kaul to Andre Russell. SIX, SIX! A cracking beginning to the over for Kolkata! Dre Russ getting into the act. Gets one right in the slot. It's full and on middle and leg, Russell clears his front leg and clobbers it 91m long into the deep mid-wicket stand.
Siddarth Kaul is into the attack.
End of over 17 ( 6 Runs )KKR 129/4 16.6Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Andre Russell. 1 run, Wow, another terrific yorker, right in the blockhole, not much a batsman can do about it. Andre only manages to dig it out. It goes one bounce over the bowler and they steal a run. 6 from the over at this stage is gold for Hyderabad. 53 needed off 18 balls.
16.5Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Shubman Gill. 1 run, Spears in a fuller ball on middle, this is quality stuff from Bhuvi. Gill keeps it out off the inner half to short fine leg for one.

16.3Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Shubman Gill. 1 run, Width on offer outside off, Gill reaches out and slaps it to sweeper cover for just one. Singles won't do for them.

Shubman Gill is in next.
15.3Rashid Khan to Nitish Rana. out, OUT! The break has hampered Rana's momentum certainly. He has been adjudged lbw! Rashid lets out a flatter and quicker leg break delivery around leg. It spins back in slightly to beat Rana's bat and hits him on the pads. They appeal and the finger goes up. Nitish has a chat with his partner but decides not to take the referral. He is off. A big blow to Kolkata.
Welcome back after the break. In fact, we have not resumed. The light towers have still not come back to normal and the PLAYERS ARE WALKING OFF. All the lights have been turned off and are being switched back on. 6 MINUTES - indicates umpire Chaudhury. We are going into overtime.
Oops... what has happened? One of the light towers has stopped functioning. The umpires have sensibly signalled for the strategic break. Kolkata are probably finding themselves in troubled waters here. 64 needed from 28 balls but with Russell, Gill and Narine to come, they will back themselves. Hyderabad still have 2 overs of Bhuvneshwar after this and one over of Siddarth Kaul. They will back themselves too.

13.1Rashid Khan to Nitish Rana. no run, NOT OUT. PITCHED OUTSIDE LEG. Hyderabad lose a review. Looked to be desperate though. When Rana missed the sweep, he looked to be hit outside leg.

End of over 13 ( 10 Runs )KKR 97/3 50 runs for Nitish Rana 50 runs for Nitish Rana 12.6Sandeep Sharma to Nitish Rana. 1 run, Full and outside off, driven through the covers for a run.

11.4Siddarth Kaul to Robin Uthappa. out, OUT! The off stump goes cartwheeling! Normally 87 is an unlucky number considered by the Aussies. Is it for Kolkata as well? A fuller length delivery on off, Uthappa comes down the track and yorks himself, he was looking for a smash towards the cover region but Kaul outsmarting him clips his off stump out of the ground. And isn't he pumped up! That is a vital wicket for Hyderabad. Uthappa was looking solid and was looking settled. A huge partnership of 80 runs is now broken.

He got a big inside edge onto the ground, the ball bounced over the stumps. Some tough luck for Rashid, What all he should do to get a wicket. Fortunes are not favoring him right now.

7.3Rashid Khan to Robin Uthappa. 1 run, IN THE AIR AND DOWN! That is a shocker. The crowd likes it. Rashid gets Uthappa in the flight first ball. Never advisable to go after a bowler straightaway in his first over. Robin does that mistake and almost pays for it. Full and around middle, Uthappa looks to go big but mistimes it. He gets a massive top edge which goes nowhere except to Yusuf Pathan at long off. It is a simple catch but he takes it too easy. Does not even get his hands to the ball and it goes past his hands, hits his chest and drops down. A single taken.
7.2Rashid Khan to Nitish Rana. leg byes, 1 run, The leg break, outside leg, too fast to read off the pitch, Rana looks to flick from his crease and misses. Is hit on the pads and the keeper appeals. The batsmen are not distracted though and the batsmen take a single. Leg bye signalled.

2.5Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Robin Uthappa. FOUR, FOUR! Had he missed, Uthappa would have been dismissed. But he doesn't and it is a boundary.

2.1Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Nitish Rana. FOUR, MISFIELD! FOUR! Almost a replica of what Sunil Narine suffered when Kolkata were fielding. Now, it is Rashid. Short and outside off, Rana punches it straight to Rashid who gets down to stop but the ball hits his fingertips and rolls behind. He is certainly not happy and is feeling the pain but is continuing.
End of over 2 ( 6 Runs )KKR 7/1 1.6Shakib Al Hasan to Chris Lynn. out, OUT! Caught! No Lynnsanity tonight. He is gone after hitting just one six. A short of a length delivery on middle and leg, going down the leg side, Lynn dances down the track and tries a cross-batted shot but get a leading edge.

0.2Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Chris Lynn. no run, Full and outside off, driven straight to cover.
