    Varun Chakravarthy
    5/20(4)
Varun Chakravarthy is named the Man of the Match. So that is it from this game! It is not end of the cricketing action for today as there is another game which follows. Punjab are taking on Hyderabad in an important clash. Do join us for that by switching tabs. Till then, take care and goodbye!
The bowling was spot on from the Kolkata side! Also, the changes as to when to get which bowler was excellent from Morgan. Cummins started things off and he finished with a three-fer. Varun then ran through the middle order of the Delhi side and finished with cracking figures of 5 for 20. The others were also handy. Except for Narine, everybody did well with the ball.
A very comprehensive win for Kolkata! How vital could this performance be! It was a game they needed to win and they have done it in some style. First they put up a massive total courtesy Narine and Rana after reeling at 42 for 3. They then continued the momentum with the ball as Cummins got the Delhi openers early. Iyer and Pant then looked to re-build but the pace they were batting at was not helping their cause. Finally when they needed to explode, Pant, Hetmyer and Iyer all fell in quick succession. It was then an impossible task for the Delhi side and they fell well short.

OUT! TIMBER! That's the fifth wicket for Chakravarthy! What an evening he has had so far! He has been brilliant with the ball and he has changed the game around for Kolkata. Best bowling figures so far in this year's tournament. Flatter around middle, Axar makes some room and looks to go big but he misses it altogether and the ball goes onto disturb the stumps.

Varun Chakravarthy To Marcus Stoinis OUT!
OUT! CAUGHT! Another one bites the dust and this should be the game for Kolkata! He had to go for the big one as the run rate was running away from them. There was no timing on this one. Loopy ball around off, Stoinis looked to go big down the ground but he did not time this one well and it balloons over towards the long off region and Tripathi runs in and he is safe as house. Good breakthrough for Kolkata. They should see the game out now.

OUT! Two in two for Varun and this is probably the game for Kolkata. The Delhi skipper is out of here. This is fuller and around off, Shreyas looks to go over long on. Tries doing what Hetmyer did but he too holes out to the fielder there. Nagarkoti is the one under it this time.

DRINKS! Really good from Kolkata so far! They have got the two openers and have made scoring also tough for Delhi. More of the same is what they would want. Delhi, on the other hand, need to get a move on. Iyer and Pant have faced enough balls to get used to the pace of the wicket. However, a lot relies on the two batting out there. Can they do something similar to what Rana and Narine did? We will find out in a bit.

Prasidh Krishna To Rishabh Pant
IN THE AIR..SHORT! Pant survives or he would be walking back right now! Short of a good length around middle, Pant looks to flick this but it takes a leading edge and goes back towards the bowler. He dives forward to try and catch it but it is short.
Krishna is back!

Pat Cummins To Shikhar Dhawan OUT!
OUT! TIMBER! Cummins knocks him over! Delhi are falling apart! It is man in form, Dhawan who walks back now. What a start by Kolkata. His angle to bowl this delivery worked out for him and gets him another wicket. On a good length around off, Dhawan looks to drive this one but misses it completely and it goes onto shatter the off stump. Jubilation for Kolkata. Disappointment for Dhawan and Delhi.

Pat Cummins To Ajinkya Rahane OUT!
OUT! LBW! It is the first ball of the innings and Rahane is a goner right on the first ball! Really disappointing! Cummins strikes with the ball. He has not been on the best form in this year's tournament but he has removed Rahane right at the start of his bowling. Cummins bowls a good length ball around off, it nips in a little bit, Rahane looks to work at this but he misses it completely and it hits him plumb on the pads. There is an appeal and the umpire obliges and raises his finger. Rahane shakes his head and walks back. What a start this is by Kolkata.
We are back for the chase. The Kolkata players are out in the middle. Shikhar Dhawan and Ajinkya Rahane will open the innings for Delhi. Pat Cummins will start the proceedings for Kolkata.
