OUT! Caught. Vinay Kumar to Chris Woakes. Slower length ball, outside off stump on the back foot driving, mis-timed in the air under control to deep extra cover, by Russell. Another wicket to end the innings, Woakes sends it high but with little distance. RCB finish on 176-7 which is a very good total against a strong bowling attack. Big runs from McCullum at the top and AB de Villiers, Virat Kohli and Mandeep Singh in the middle-order. RCB will be looking to restrict the Knight Riders but the home team have some powerful strikers in their line-up.
OUT! Caught. Vinay Kumar to Mandeep Singh. Length ball, outside off stump backing away driving, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled to deep cover, by Yadav. The around the wicket plan finally pays off. This was in the slot for Mandeep but with the angle taking it away from him he was unable to get a clean connection. Caught on the edge.
Vinay Kumar to Mandeep Singh. Yorker, outside off stump on the back foot pushing, back to bowler for no runs, shy attempt by Kumar.

FOUR! Vinay Kumar to Mandeep Singh. Full toss, down leg side backing away slog sweeping, well timed in the air under control past deep backward square leg for 4 runs. Wrong length and helped on its way. Maybe a change in angle required.

OUT! Caught. Mitchell Johnson to Sarfaraz Khan. Length ball, outside off stump on the front foot driving, mis-timed in the air under control to long on, by Singh. Taken down at long on.

FOUR! Kulwant Khejroliya to Vinay Kumar. Short, down leg side backing away pulling, well timed in the air under control past long on for 4 runs.
Flat-batted back past mid on. Kolkata take the victory after being in control for most of the chase. They got off to a good start through Sunil Narine (50 from 19) and Dinesh Karthik played a captain's knock to see them home with 35 not out. RCB must have thought they had enough runs on the board but today their bowling wasn't up to scratch. A good win for KKR and they will be looking to make Eden Gardens a fortress.

FOUR! Umesh Yadav to Andre Russell. Length ball, to leg backing away driving, well timed in the air under control past long off for 4 runs. Close to being in the blockhole but Russell creates a bit of space and helps it over mid off.

OUT! Caught. NOT OUT changed by umpire to OUT after REFERRAL. Chris Woakes to Rinku Singh. Bouncer, down leg side on the back foot hooking, top edge to wicketkeeper, by de Kock. Sharp bouncer which gets a feather through to de Kock. It was only a small one which only Woakes and Kohli heard but the captain was confident enough to ask for the review straight away. RCB continue to chip away while KKR send out Andre Russell on his comeback to IPL cricket.
