Chris Lynn | 82 | 51 | 7 | 6 | 160.78 |
c Shardul Thakur b Imran Tahir
14.1 OUT! Chris Lynn is dismissed by Imran Tahir and it's a massive breakthrough for Chennai. The Aussie was firing on all cylinders, looking very dangerous but an inspirational bowling change from Dhoni and Tahir has done the trick. He delivers a flatter ball, on middle, probably a googly, Lynn shapes up for a slog sweep but it turns in to take the inside half and goes aerially to deep square leg. Shardul Thakur makes no mistake as he slides to take a safe catch in the deep. Lynn misses out on a century but well played nonetheless. 122/4

Sunil Narine | 2 | 7 | 0 | 0 | 28.57 |
c Faf du Plessis b Mitchell Santner
4.5 OUT! Faf du Plessis takes it! Narine was playing and missing all along, this time he holes out! Slightly flighted ball outside off, Narine decides to take on long on but does not have enough power on this shot. He ends up holing out to du Plessis who is positioned exactly for this at long on and takes a good catch against the sun. Kolkata lose their first and Chennai after a pasting initially are pulling things back well. 38/1

Nitish Rana | 21 | 18 | 3 | 0 | 116.66 |
c Faf du Plessis b Imran Tahir
10.2 OUT! Tahir is off on his train! And why not, his national team skipper has taken another catch. Another lefty holes out at long on, this time it is Rana! A flighted ball on middle and leg by Tahir, Rana wants to put pressure on the bowler. He goes for the big one over long on despite there being a fielder back there. He does not get enough power on it and ends up giving a simple catch to Faf du Plessis at long on. Chennai strike just when they really needed to. 79/2

Robin Uthappa | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | |
c Faf du Plessis b Imran Tahir
10.4 OUT! Uthappa goes first ball! The Tahir train is off again! What a catch this is! Incredible athleticism from du Plessis! A flighted ball on middle and off first up to the new batsman. Uthappa does not want to waste any time and looks to go for a biggie over the leg side. He ends up getting a top edge and the ball goes straight up in the air just outside the circle at mid off. Du Plessis from wide long off has to run a long way before diving full length to take an excellent catch, his third of the game! Chennai now pulling things back really well here, but that is poor stuff from an experienced batsman like Uthappa! 80/3

Dinesh Karthik C Wk | 18 | 14 | 2 | 0 | 128.57 |
c Faf du Plessis b Shardul Thakur
17.2 OUT! Fourth catch for Faf du Plessis! The ball has been following him today in the field. Thakur serves a fuller length ball outside off at 136.3 kph, Karthik keeps his weight on the back foot, trying to heave it over the leg side, but ends up towering it straight up in the air at long off. Yet another flop show from the Kolkata skipper this season. This is excellent going for Chennai at the back end of the innings. 150/6

Andre Russell | 10 | 4 | 1 | 1 | 250 |
c sub b Imran Tahir
14.5 OUT! The big man is gone! Tahir is turning this game on its head! Kolkata have fallen silent! A flighted one way outside off, excellent ball from Tahir. Credits to him for bowling this one without being scared. Russell decides to still take on that one but ends up mistiming it. He fails to get the power and the elevation that he would have liked. The ball flies flat towards Dhruv Shorey, the substitute fielder at long on, who takes a smart catch diving forward. Huge wicket in the context of the game, this can easily make a difference of 30-40 runs to the final total! 132/5

Shubman Gill | 15 | 20 | 0 | 0 | 75 |
c Ravindra Jadeja b Shardul Thakur
19.5 OUT! Gill departs! Thakur hunts him down with a short ball. Gill gets on top of the bounce to play the pull shot. It appears that the connection is good but it's not good enough to take it over the rope. Jadeja takes the catch safely at deep mid-wicket. Kolkata's innings just failed to get going at the death. 161/7

run out (MS Dhoni)
20 OUT! A run out on the final ball and Kolkata end with 161/8 on the board. A terrific yorker by Thakur, following the batsman down the leg side, Chawla swings but fails to connect. They attempt to steal a bye but Dhoni tosses up the ball to the bowler who runs to his end and takes the bails off. 161/8

Shane Watson | 6 | 7 | 1 | 0 | 85.71 |
lbw b Harry Gurney
3.1 OUT! Watson is a dead duck in front of the wickets! Gurney delivers a length ball from 'round off and gets it to angle in from outside off. Watson is rocked on the back foot, probably not expecting it to come in, as he tries to defend. It skids back in off the surface to hit him on the back leg. They appeal and the finger goes up immediately. Watson starts to walk back, du Plessis stops him and they have a little bit of chase about the DRS but then decide against it. Good call! The replays confirm that it's plumb. First blow to Chennai in this run chase as Watson's inconsistent run this season goes on... 29/1

Faf du Plessis | 24 | 16 | 5 | 0 | 150 |
b Sunil Narine
5.3 OUT! The mystery man strikes! That has spun in a long way to knock back the off stump! Flighted outside off, du Plessis goes for the slog sweep but misses the ball. The ball turns in a long way and goes on to the off stump. Narine does not even celebrate but this is a huge wicket in the context of the game, Faf was looking really good. This is also Narine's 50th League wicket at the Eden Gardens! 118 runs needed in 87 balls now. 44/2

c Robin Uthappa b Piyush Chawla
9.1 OUT! Chawla starts with a wicket! A tossed up delivery on off, Rayudu drives it straight to Robin Uthappa present at extra cover who takes the catch with ease. Piyush Chawla gives good air on this ball. Tempts Rayudu well, he goes for the inside out lofted cover drive but doesn't get the elevation needed. The ball goes flat to Robin Uthappa. And we again see a wicket after the break. Game is on. 101 runs needed in 65 balls. 61/3

Kedar Jadhav | 20 | 12 | 3 | 1 | 166.66 |
lbw b Piyush Chawla
11.1 OUT! Kedar Jadhav is adjudged lbw! Chawla dishes out a quicker and flatter delivery, landing around off and skids on with the angle, Jadhav attempts to flick but misses and is rapped on the pads. They appeal and the umpire agrees. Piyush is all pumped up. Kedar has a chat with his partner, tells him where it hit him on the pads, Raina advises him not to take the referral. Good call once more from the non-striker. Kedar was gone for all money. 81 needed off 53 balls. 81/4

MS Dhoni C Wk | 16 | 13 | 0 | 1 | 123.07 |
lbw b Sunil Narine
15.4 OUT! It's hitting leg and the impact is also in line. Dhoni will have to go and this is a massive moment in this match. Narine has hunted down the prized scalp. A well-disguised off spinner, pitching full on off and turning back in. Dhoni stretches forward to meet the ball but it spins back in to beat his bat and rap him on the pads. They appeal and the umpire raises his finger after thinking for a while. MS takes the DRS hesitantly but to no use. The crowd has found its voice back. 41 needed off 26 balls. 121/5
