Commentary

  • End of Over 18
    Over 18. 16 runs. Bowler: Jofra Archer. Kolkata Knight Riders: 145/4 (rr 8.06)
  • 17.6

    SIX! Jofra Archer to Dinesh Karthik. Back of a length, outside off stump on the back foot pulling, well timed in the air under control over deep mid wicket for 6 runs. The KKR captain finishes the match in style. His initial movement is back, gets the ball right in the slot, and shovels over wide long on for a maximum.

    Kolkata come out on top in this crucial game battling for a top four spot. Kuldeep Yadav did the damage for them with the ball, and they were able to stumble over the line with the bat. They now put themselves in a great position to qualify. Rajasthan need a win from their final game, otherwise they are out of the tournament.

    The big games continue tomorrow, with Mumbai taking on Kings XI. Join us again for that.

    APPEAL! Verified by umpire after REFERRAL. Ben Stokes to Dinesh Karthik. Length ball, outside off stump no foot movement working, hit pad to short mid wicket for 1 run, fielded by Sodhi, appeal made for L.B.W. Speared into the pads by Stokes, Karthik is stuck on the crease, and is pinned on the front pad. Not out given by the umpire, but reviewed by Rajasthan. It looks close, but is umpire's call on hitting the stumps. Just sneaking too far down leg.

Off the bottom end of the bat, and it loops down to deep point for a simple take.
