Daredevils vs KKR, 32nd match at Kolkata, , Apr 28 2017 - Match Result

7.20 pm KKR's reputation as deadly chasers grows. They haven't lost a chase at Eden Gardens since 2012, 13 wins in a row. Here's how the teams stand in the league. KKR firmly on top, Daredevils languishing at the bottom.

Daredevils captain Zaheer Khan: We had the platform, we could have defended 160, me pulling my hamstring didn't help. That dropped catch didn't help. Maybe we were 15 runs short. I think the timing of the drops is crucial, today's was at a wrong time, someone like Uthappa, if we got him out it could have been different. Could have defended 160. We have to regroup, quickly. We need that spark, that winning momentum, someone to have that kind of day that changes things for us. So far it hasn't happened but that does not mean it will not happen. I will be able to tell you better about my hamstring tomorrow, I didn't want to take a chance by bowling again. Let's see how it holds up in the morning.

Looking at that Mishra-Samson drop in the end .... it was Mishra's catch. He was running forwards from short fine leg, while Samson was running back from square leg. Mishra seemed to get closer to the ball too, but then the advancing Samson put him off and he pulled away from the ball. Both players at fault for sure. But only one gave the glare.

kalyan yadav: "Was waiting whole my life to watch this on cricinfo, wide ball to win the game - excited to watch what they would do with that 16.3 now" Such strange pleasures!

PRC: "DD are rock bottom, but look at that NRR! Quite amazing" It is +0.514, despite five losses in seven games. Second best in the league along with Mumbai.

Gautam Gambhir: We still have a long way to go, most boxes ticked but we can't be complacent. Once you lose momentum it's difficult to get back. But very professional performance today, to restrict them to 160 after the start they got. Because of the heat .... At one stage I was tempted to bat first but we have been chasing really well so stuck to that. every player we pick we pick with a lot of trust, and if you show trust they repay it. We can put some more effort in our fielding, save 10 or 15 runs, will be easier to chase it down.

Gautam Gambhir is the Man of the Match, he's also the highest run-scorer in the tournament now.

That's all we've got for you on the commentary for this game. Hop over to Kings XI v Sunrisers, beginning in 15 minutes. Sunrisers are batting first.

Thank you for all your emails today, cheers!

Neel: "Huge fan of RSD and DD!!! But some of their tactics are really baffling!!! What Nair is doing in the team? Why all foreign players are of same type - e.g. fast bowling all rounders and Shami is sitting out......Why Nadeem is not picked although he looked very good in the games he played....Why Pant and Morris are not promoted up the order? They lose the games tactically and not because of lack of talent"

Samrat Ahuja: "Is it just me or Sheldon Jackson really resembles Manish Pandey a lot!!" I was nearly fooled as well.

KL: "Oh Mathews! I can't forget the pain I saw on Morris' face while Mathews was promoted ahead of him. It was a game DD should have won."

chandru: "@Punit, did u saw what what Mathews did in the chances he got. From next match DD will play with Samuels"

punit: "Mathews has to play for DD. He is probably the best batsman in the squad and is sitting on the bench. He has to play and be in the top 4!" For Anderson?

Samrat Ahuja: "Request to Dravid : Please get Nadeem back in team, and make Mishra sit out for a couple of matches!!!"
