    Rinku Singh
    48(21)
Right then, that is it from this run-fest and a record-breaking game. However, the action in the Indian T20 League continues as you can switch tabs to catch all the action from the match between Hyderabad and Punjab. Cheers!
Rinku Singh is the PLAYER OF THE MATCH for his match-winning knock of 48 off just 21 balls.
Earlier in the game, Gujarat posted a huge total thanks to a smashing knock from Vijay Shankar of 63 runs off just 24 balls and a classy one from Sai Sudharsan. Sunil Narine was the pick of the bowlers for Kolkata for his three wickets. Coming to the chase, Venkatesh Iyer played brilliantly but the hero was Rinku Singh for his five sixes in the last over which took his side over the line.
Gujarat will be heartbroken as they know they have let this one go. They were behind till the 16th over. However, after getting hit in his first three overs, Rashid Khan saved his last over for Andre Russell and that turned out to be a masterstroke as he got rid of Dre Russ on the very first delivery and ended up with a hat-trick which turned things around massively for the home team. In the last over, Yash Dayal lost control and will want to erase this game from his memory as they suffered a defeat here.
Kolkata got off to a slow start and lost both openers quite early. After that, Venkatesh Iyer and Nitish Rana steadied their ship and also scored runs quickly as they stitched up a 100-run stand before the skipper got dismissed. Iyer continued his onslaught and smashed it all around the park but with the pressure of the required rate, he holed out after blasting 83 runs off just 40 balls which put the away side in a strong position with the big hitters still to come. However, they suffered an extraordinary collapse as Andre Russell, Sunil Narine and Shardul Thakur became victims of a brilliant Rashid Khan hat-trick. But, when everything seemed over, Rinku Singh stepped up and how! Kolkata smashed 31 runs off the final over to get over the line which has never happened in the history of this league.
Remember the name, Rinku Singh! He has pulled off a stunner here and Kolkata has won a game where they were down and out coming into the last over and after the Rashid Khan hat-trick.  They needed 29 runs in the last over and Rinku Singh managed to hit fives sixes on the last five balls to make this a special day for Kolkata. We have witnessed something extraordinary here!

Rashid Khan To Shardul Thakur OUT!
OUT! PLUMB! Rashid Khan has the HAT-TRICK! Unbelievable scenes as the players and the crowd go wild! The magician has had a quiet game so far but you can never rule out class! He bowls a googly and flights this one full, just outside off. Gets the ball to turn back in sharply and beat the inside edge of the bat. Shardul Thakur looks to get forward and push at the ball but misses and the ball raps against the pads. Rashid Khan runs off half celebrating and half appealing as he knows the batter is a goner. The umpire raises his finger to confirm it but Shardul Thakur decides to review. UltraEdge shows there is no bat involved and Ball Tracking shows three reds. Shardul Thakur makes the long walk back on a golden duck as well and Gujarat are now on top having claimed seven wickets so far.

OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Rashid Khan gets a wicket in his last over and it could not be bigger than the dangerman Andre Russell! This is fired on a shorter length and into the pads. Andre Russell looks to pull this leg side but misses and the ball bounces up off the pads. Srikar Bharat (sub) grabs onto the ball behind the wicket on the leg side and is convinced there is an edge. Rashid Khan is unsure but goes up for the review. Ultraedge confirms that there is an inside edge before the ball hits the pads and Kolkata are in a spot of bother here
Is that out? Rashid Khan goes for the review for an appeal for caught behind.
It seems like Rashid Khan is not happy with the condition of the current ball and the umpires decide to change it.

Strategic break! The equation is simple for Kolkata. They need 56 runs in the last 5 overs and if Venkatesh Iyer plays all of them, this will be a walk in the park for the visitors. After the early breakthroughs, Gujarat have been indisciplined in their bowling and that may cost them this game. Hardik Pandya's absence is quite evident and Gujarat seem to lack some ideas here.
