Kolkata Knight Riders innings (20 overs maximum)		R	B	4s	6s	SR
SC Ganguly*	b Vettori	56	46	8	1	121.73
11.5 What a loverly delivery! Slow. Really slow. It was looped across. Ganguly had to wait and wait on the front foot and tried to adjust by attempting a slog sweep .. but he had completed the shot far too early. The ball gently eased towards the middle stump. 104/2
CH Gayle	b Bhatia	40	21	5	2	190.47
10.2 Done in by the slower one! Rajat keeps faith on his slower ones and slips in one full and on the off stump line. Gayle, who went over long-on last ball, tried to slog this one too square on the leg side and that led to his down fall. The bat whooshed past the ball .. Clatter! 94/1
BB McCullum	run out (Bhatia/Vettori)	6	7	0	0	85.71
13.1 Vettori to Tiwary, McCullum is run out A big wicket. It was pushed towards deep square-leg .. Rajat Bhatia rushes in and fires in the throw to Dan, who very calmly breaks the stumps. They managed to steal two runs in the last over when McCullum tapped past square-leg but that was hit far more gently than this one. 111/3

V Sehwag	b Agarkar	64	40	6	3	160.00
