CSK vs KKR, 48th match at Kolkata, IPL, May 07 2011 - Ball by Ball Commentary

2020 Game over at Eden Gardens. We've been informed that the match has been called off. Kolkata were ahead of the D/L when it began to rain and that's how it ends. Kolkata move level with Mumbai on 14 points at the top of the table, though their net run-rate is not as good as Mumbai's.

That's it from this game then, head over to Mumbai v Delhi, where there's a blizzard in town. Thank you for your emails today, cheers.

2000 Mumbai are about to begin their innings against Delhi at the Wankhede. Only one TV channel showing the IPL, I wonder what they'll do if the rain stops in Kolkata. I have no idea what's happening at Eden Gardens at the moment. You'll know as soon as I do.

1939 And it's raining. Rather hard. The players are walking off the ground, the covers are coming on. Kolkata are ahead of the D/L par score by 10 runs at the moment. This could be it for the game ... but stay tuned.

A wet end to a rather hot performance from Kolkata at Eden Gardens. It hasn't ended decisively yet, but it probably will.

"Dhoni at the toss said that "If rain was forecast we would have bowled." He ignored wiseman's advice to never believe weatherman," says Nirlek.

"100 kms south of Kolkata! Really Nil? Are you rowing in the Bay of Bengal?" asks bisn.

"It's raining all around Kolkata. I wonder if that pushed Gambhir to try to wrap up fast and made him play that shot," says Nobel.

"I am 100 kms south of Kolkata and its raining cats and dogs here. The rain would probably reach Kolkata by 8 pm," says Nil.

It's got windy at Eden Gardens.
