KKR win their home game by five wickets, only there sixth win this season and although it's not going to do much for them, it will hurt RCB. Kallis was the one who marshalled the chase, then Tiwary and Tendo put the finishing touches... Interesting pitch here too.. Well, the next game starts soon. Time to switch windows. Ciao Ciao.

Vinay to Ryan ten Doeschate, FOUR runs

slower delivery, Tendo spots it and he slaps it over the bowler's head. Henriques tries in vain to get to that from long-on, but that makes it easily over the boundary.. Tricky win this one. .But a win nonetheless

One hit will do from here..

1
Vinay to Bhatia, 1 run

Five off six. Vinay to bowl.. He gave only three away in his last over

slower delivery on the stumps, it's a touch slower, the batsman swats it to deep midwicket

now Bhatia has a wild slog at a length delivery, but that one is nowhere near the bat..

18.4

Unadkat to Ryan ten Doeschate, 1 run

he walks across the stumps and tries to heave the length delivery to the leg side, but he drags it to square leg. He completes a risky single

18.3
4
Unadkat to Ryan ten Doeschate, FOUR runs

full delivery on the stumps, Tendo drives it over mid on, just over him.. But that is enough for four very useful runs

18.2
Unadkat to Ryan ten Doeschate, no run

he has a swish towards the leg side at that one, but it was another slower delivery wide outside off, misses it completely

18.1
Unadkat to Ryan ten Doeschate, no run

bowls a slower length delivery that beats the batsman as he tries to cut it behind square

Ian: "Why has Henriques not had a bowl? When you're defending such a low total, isn't it wasteful on Kohli's part not to use such a dangerous bowler?"

17.6
1
Vinay to Ryan ten Doeschate, 1 run

bowls a super yorker on the off stump, the batsman manages to dig it out towards third man for a single

17.5
1
Vinay to Bhatia, 1 run

back of length delivery, it is dabbed towards point and they take a quick single. But Gayle was quick and he throws the stumps down at the striker's end. Tension everywhere as the umpire calls for a review, but he has made it back in time

Bhatia is the new batsman

17.4
W
Vinay to Tiwary, OUT

caught at cover! Of all the places the batsman could have hit this knee-high full toss, he chooses the worst place, hits it towards cover where Kohli dives to his left to complete a good low catch.. This isn't over yet..

caught at mid on! He can afford a smile now. It was a slower delivery on a length and Kallis looked to clear the mid-on fielder, but he ended up dragging this one up in the air. Henriques back pedals and completes an easy catch
