Bowler: Piyush Chawla. Kings XI Punjab: 4-190(rr 9.50) 19.6 . Piyush Chawla to David Miller. Quicker length ball, off stump moves in front driving, to extra cover for no runs, fielded by Yadav. And there it is. Kolkata complete a comprehensive victory by 28 runs which was set up by a blistering batting effort. Andre Russell got the party started with the bat and then added a couple of wickets to make his day even better. David Miller and Mayank Agarwal battled hard and chipped in with half-centuries but Kings XI were always chasing the game and unable to keep up with the run-rate. With that strong win Kolkata move up to top in the table after overtaking Chennai but it is still early days in a long season. 19.5 2 Piyush Chawla to David Miller.

.

Piyush Chawla to David Miller. Quicker length ball, off stump moves in front driving, to extra cover for no runs, fielded by Yadav. And there it is. Kolkata complete a comprehensive victory by 28 runs which was set up by a blistering batting effort. Andre Russell got the party started with the bat and then added a couple of wickets to make his day even better. David Miller and Mayank Agarwal battled hard and chipped in with half-centuries but Kings XI were always chasing the game and unable to keep up with the run-rate. With that strong win Kolkata move up to top in the table after overtaking Chennai but it is still early days in a long season.

FOUR! Piyush Chawla to Mandeep Singh. Googly length ball, outside off stump moves in front Scoop, well timed in the air under control past fine leg for 4 runs. Clever and effective. Lynn thinks he has a chance at short fine leg but it loops just over his head and bounces away to the fence.

Slapped into the legside where it should be cut-off. Uthappa isn't the most sprightly in the field and he doesn't manage to get a good enough hand to prevent the boundary.

FOUR! Andrew Tye to Robin Uthappa. Length ball, outside off stump moves in front Steer, well timed in the air under control past third man for 4 runs. How did Uthappa manage to get that away to the boundary? Tye did brilliantly to follow him but Robbie turned the bat face and found the gap. That was a breathtaking innings all round from KKR. Narine started the fireworks before Uthappa (67), Rana (63) and then Andre Russell (48 from 17) joined the party. The no-ball when Russell was dismissed turned out to be very crucial. Eden Gardens is known as a batting paradise and Kings XI will need their big guns to fire tonight.

Piyush Chawla to David Miller. Quicker length ball, off stump moves in front driving, to extra cover for no runs, fielded by Yadav. And there it is. Kolkata complete a comprehensive victory by 28 runs which was set up by a blistering batting effort. Andre Russell got the party started with the bat and then added a couple of wickets to make his day even better. David Miller and Mayank Agarwal battled hard and chipped in with half-centuries but Kings XI were always chasing the game and unable to keep up with the run-rate. With that strong win Kolkata move up to top in the table after overtaking Chennai but it is still early days in a long season.
