Kolkata Vs Punjab Live Cricket Score - Live Cricket Score, Match 44 - Full Scorecard

Andre Russell to Priyansh Arya, OUT! CAUGHT! Finally some relief for KKR! And it's that man again, Andre Russell, the partnership breaker! The off cutter delivery, that lands on a length, just outside off, Priyansh Arya lines up for the pull and gets a bit of a top edge as it carries towards deep mid-wicket, where Vaibhav Arora takes a relatively easy catch. Priyansh Arya departs for a commanding 69 (35) and the 120-run opening stand is broken now.

Vaibhav Arora to Prabhsimran Singh, OUT! TAKEN! An innocuous delivery, but it fetches Vaibhav Arora a wicket. KKR will take it with both hands. End of a fine knock from Prabhsimran Singh. Arora looks to go full but ends up serving a low full toss, outside off, Singh frees his arms and goes for the cross-batted lofted stroke down the ground. Does not get the distance as the bat turns in his hand and he hits it only as far as long off where Rovman Powell runs to his right and gobbles it. Singh departs for 83 (49). Punjab Kings are now 160/2.

Varun Chakaravarthy to Glenn Maxwell, OUT! TIMBER! Varun Chakaravarthy wins the battle against Glenn Maxwell. Pushed through by Varun, on the shorter side, at the top of the off stump, Maxwell stays leg side of the ball and tries to cut this one away late. Fails to lay any bat on it as the ball sneaks over the blade to clatter into the top of the off pole. Maxwell goes for just 7 (8) and the Punjab Kings are now 172/3.

Vaibhav Arora to Marco Jansen, OUT! TAKEN! Marco Jansen holes out! Vaibhav Arora makes the batter reach out, on a short of a length, Jansen walks across to get closer to the line of the ball. Shapes up to go down the ground but picks out Venkatesh Iyer at long on to perfection. Iyer takes it around his chest. Kolkata are mounting a good comeback towards the end of the innings.
