Kartik Tyagi To Abishek Porel
1 run.
3.5
1
Kartik Tyagi To KL Rahul
1 run, the batter goes deep in the crease and guides it through point for a single.
Alright then, we have the news that Rajasthan Royals have won the match in Wankhede against the Mumbai Indians by 30 runs. That means even if Kolkata wins here, it won't matter as the last spot of the playoff has been sealed by the Royals.

Kartik Tyagi To Abishek Porel
A rare sight at Eden Gardens, as the batters run three. Full-pitched delivery outside off, driven between mid off and covers, not sweetly timed and it is cut off.
3.3

Kartik Tyagi To Abishek Porel
EDGED AND DROPPED! That should have been taken by Tejasvi Singh. Hard length, darted across off, Abishek Porel throws his bat at it and gets a thick outside edge. The ball flies to the left of the keeper, who spills it.
3.2

Kartik Tyagi To Abishek Porel
FOUR! Top shot! Just full of a good length, in and around off, Porel plays a lovely high-elbow off drive and nails it well to the left of mid off for another boundary.
3.1

Kartik Tyagi To Abishek Porel
EDGED AND FOUR! Express pace from Tyagi, around 148 kph and just angled across the left-hander. Abishek Porel is drawn into the drive but the ball flies off the outside edge and wide of fly slip, into the third man fence.
Green has an expensive start. Now comes Kartik Tyagi, replacing Saurabh Dubey.

Cameron Green To KL Rahul
FOUR! That's sheer class from Rahul. Good-length delivery, around the top of off. Rahul hits through the line, nailing it over mid off for a boundary, and he holds the pose as well.

Cameron Green To Abishek Porel
Green comes around the wicket to the left-hander, serves it full and angles it into the stumps. Porel drives it to mid on for a quick single.

Cameron Green To KL Rahul
Ooh, a bit of extra bounce straightaway for Green. Green bashes the hard length over middle, Rahul gets taken aback by the extra bounce and fends it off the gloves on the leg side, collecting a single.
A pretty good start from Saurabh Dubey. Cameron Green comes into the attack now and replaces the spinner, Anukul Roy.

Saurabh Dubey To KL Rahul
Hit on the up but straight to the fielder. Hung outside off, full and enough room to free the arms. Rahul reaches out and drives it to the cover fielder.
Pace from the other end? Saurabh Dubey it is, with one slip in place.

The players of Knight Riders are taking their respective fielding positions. KL Rahul and Abishek Porel will be the openers for the Delhi Capitals. Anukul Roy will start the proceedings with the new ball. Porel to take the strike. Away we go...
