Check out the photos from Kolkata versus Pune match in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2017.

By Oneindia Staff Writer

Kolkata, May 4: Rahul Tripathi was the batting star as Rising Pune Supergiant (RPS) defeated Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) by 4 wickets in an Indian Premier League (IPL) 2017 match last night (May 3). (Match scorecard)

Tripathi missed out on a well deserved century but his magnificent knock of 93 (52 balls, 9x4, 7x6), ensure that RPS won and catapulted to the third spot in Points Table. (Match highlights)

The 26-year-old right-hander scored 78 out of 93 in boundaries. He single-handedly won the game for his team when the next top score was only 14, by Ben Stokes.

RPS successfully chased down 156 with 4 balls to spare at the Eden Gardens. (Who is Rahul?)

Earlier, left-arm paceman Jaydev Unadkat's 2/28 including a first-over wicket-maiden restricted KKR to 155/8 in 20 overs. Manish Pandey was the highest scorer for the hosts with 37.
