Partnership

Partnership of the day, Sourav Ganguly and Michael Hussey, 78 in 7.3 overs
Support for Sourav Ganguly had not been forthcoming until David Hussey arrived in the ninth over. Ganguly batted on purposely, collecting boundaries both sides of square off the erratic Harmeet Singh, and reached his second fifty of the tournament by putting an Ojha full toss away for six. Kolkata's scoring rate dipped slightly as Hussey indulged in some sensible single-hunting instead of risky shots, but Ganguly did well to keep it from slipping too far with the odd poached boundary. Only in two overs of their crucial alliance was a four was not hit. At 116 for 3 after 15 overs, Kolkata had set themselves up for a final push.

Over

Ganguly versus Pragyan Ojha, 17th over of Kolkata Knight Riders' innings
David Hussey was given a life by Adam Gilchrist behind the stumps and in the same over Ganguly sent the Eden faithful into raptures with three slogged sixes before he fell trying a fourth. Depending on which side of the fence you sat on, it was a massive over. Ganguly had ransacked 21 runs but he'd also been cut off short of a century.

Moment

Sourav Ganguly broke the shackles against Kemar Roach with a lovely lofted six over mid-on, judging the length and hitting on the rise, and followed up next ball with a delicate dab to third man for four. He then played a lovely steer for four, timing Rohit Sharma's offspin expertly between a strong off-side field.
