Batting first, Punjab managed to score just 167 runs in their 20 overs. The partnership of Glenn Maxwell and Wriddhiman Saha in the middle-order took their score past 150.

Chasing the total, Kolkata were off to a flying start as usual but Sunil Narine departed after a quickfire 18 runs.

KKR were sailing smoothly until Robin Uthappa's wicket fell in the 10th over. After that, the batsmen came and went and the run rate slowed down.

Chris Lynn's run out in the ending overs was the last nail in KKR's coffin. KXIP finally managed to register a much-needed win and remained in the hunt for playoffs.
