Kolkata Knight Riders v Somerset

Somerset won by 5 wickets (with 2 balls remaining)

Twenty20 match | 2011/12 season
Played at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Uppal, Hyderabad
25 September 2011 - day/night (20-over match)


Kolkata Knight Riders innings (20 overs maximum)		R	M	B	4s	6s	SR
MS Bisla†	c Jones b Gregory	17	11	12	2	1	141.66
2.4 well Bisla's chancy knock has ended. He was ill at ease against the short ball and his attempt at pulling one that got to him too quickly has landed in square leg's hands 20/1
JH Kallis	not out	74	78	61	4	4	121.31

G Gambhir*	c Thomas b Gregory	0	1	1	0	0	0.00
2.6 oops, Gambhir's return is terrible. He closes the face too early to a full ball, trying to play it on the leg side. The leading edge loops towards mid-off, where Thomas takes a simple catch. Terrific first over from Lewis Gregory. 21/2
MK Tiwary	c Dockrell b Thomas	20	31	26	1	0	76.92
12.1 caught at short fine leg! The short ball works for Thomas, Tiwary is late on the pull and top edges it to Dockrell, simple catch 71/3
YK Pathan	not out	39	32	21	0	4	185.71

Extras	(lb 4, w 6, nb 1)	11

Bowling	O	M	R	W	Econ
AC Thomas	4	0	34	1	8.50	(1nb, 1w)
12.1 to Tiwary, caught at short fine leg! The short ball works for Thomas, Tiwary is late on the pull and top edges it to Dockrell, simple catch 71/3
M Kartik	4	0	25	0	6.25

L Gregory	2	0	9	2	4.50
2.4 to Bisla, well Bisla's chancy knock has ended. He was ill at ease against the short ball and his attempt at pulling one that got to him too quickly has landed in square leg's hands 20/1 2.6 to Gambhir, oops, Gambhir's return is terrible.

Somerset innings (target: 162 runs from 20 overs)		R	M	B	4s	6s	SR
CR Jones	c Tiwary b Iqbal Abdulla	6	5	5	1	0	120.00
1.1 Iqbal Abdulla strikes first ball, a superb catch by Tiwary diving to his left at backward point to take it low, Abdulla blows some kisses in celebration 15/1
PD Trego	run out (Shakib Al Hasan)	28	57	35	3	0	80.00
13.1 from Shakib Al Hasan, dropped by Shakib, but he has redeemed himself with a direct hit that ends Trego's stay, it all started with an almighty heave from Trego, that swirled high and towards mid-on, Shakib positioned himself nicely under it before spilling it, he then had a second chase to get a wicket, he doesn't make another mistake 120/2
RE van der Merwe	c & b Shakib Al Hasan	73	53	40	9	2	182.50
13.5 is this game turning? Shakib gets another wicket, has van der Merwe chipping the ball back to the bowler, the crowd roars, van der Merwe can't believe he has fallen in such a soft manner 121/3
JC Hildreth	c †Bisla b Bhatia	0	4	4	0	0	0.00
14.1 Rajat Bhatia gets a wicket now, Kolkata are well and truly back, a thin outside edge that is taken the keeper who is standing up, some pumped-up celebrations from the Knight Riders, it was a length ball that moved away a hint, nice take by the keeper 123/4
NRD Compton	not out	19	33	17	2	0	111.76

AV Suppiah	b Bhatia	15	14	11	2	0	136.36
16.5 once again Suppiah tries to move past off and guide the ball down to fine leg, Bhatia gets the better of him this time, Suppiah can't get bat on ball and is bowled, Bhatia doesn't realise that and appeals for an lbw 141/5
