Kings XI vs KKR, 14th match at Pune, IPL, Apr 18 2015 - Match Result

That is that for tonight. Do tune in tomorrow too. Until then this is Deivarayan Muthu wondering how to pull off a Russell-like Mohawk. G'night..

Russell, Man of the Match: We were positive. Yusuf gave me the strike and I was happy for the win. I am going rate this performance as my best.

Gambhir: There is a lot of fearlessness about Russell and Surya. Credit needs to go to the entire support-staff. We knew if we could take the game till the end and if Russell stays there, we could win. Russell did it in the Champions League as well. We want these kind of characters to go out there and express themselves.

Bailey: I am okay [responding to the shoulder injury]. We were 20 runs short with the bat, we dropped a few catches and missed a couple of run outs. Full credit to Russell. We did not do either of the disciplines well. Russell threw away our plans. Yusuf reined in his natural game and played along with Russell. We need a kick up the backside. We are playing two top teams next - Chennai and Rajasthan. If that doesn't do it, then nothing will do it.

KKR were rocked when they slumped from 60 for 2 to 60 for 5, Sandy producing a double-wicket maiden. KXIP may have been on top at that point, but Russell snatched the game by the scruff of its neck and delivered some monster blows. As Bailey put, Yusuf reined himself in and ably supported Russell. Kings XI Punjab were sloppy on the field, missing a couple of dollies and run-out chances, and paid the penalty. Do stick around for the presentation, folks.

Ashish: "The way Yusuf played...forgiven for the dropped catch...!!!"

vineet: "One must appreciate the way Pathan batted in the partnership"

Mohit: "Punjab's death bowling has been a major issue all tournament. Have to rectify that to become a force to be reckoned with."

Gautam Pondi: "Really impressed with Yusuf Pathan here. Never thought he had it in him to play the anchor!"

Adarsh: "So Gauti and Viru both scored 11 runs each. Opening partners turned into scoring partners today!"

Piyush Chawla.. Two slips in..

KKR need just one to win

Adeelkhan: "Wawwwwwww Russel you beauty.... <3"

Russell looks to shimmy down the track. Anureet pulls out, he has a wry smile on his face

Madhav: "That drop wont prove costly as the match is now effectively over."

Maxi still can't believe that he had dropped that. He is the stand-in captain, Bailey off the field, remember? KKR on the charge.

Time out..

Russell has developed into a brilliant finisher. At CPL he won games from nowhere & now giving KKR a chance here #IPL2015

Bailey has gone off the field..

Bails may have injured his right hand while diving at extra-cover. He seems to be in some pain. His right hand is stationary. He landed badly on his right shoulder
