14.6 overs (1 Run) Floated, around middle, DK goes back and flicks it through mid-wicket for a single. He gets off the mark. Chahal ends his 4-over spell with 2 for 16. He has given his side a glimmer of hope. Can Bangalore build on it?
14.5 overs (0 Run) Flatter and outside off, Dinesh Karthik looks to cut it away. The ball takes the inside edge and rolls out.
14.4 overs (0 Run) A dot now! Quicker. Full and on off, Karthik comes across and defends it onto the pitch.
14.3 overs (1 Run) Full and on off. Narine pushes it to long off for a single.
Dinesh Karthik walks out now.
14.2 overs (0 Run) OUT! CAUGHT! Needless from Nitish Rana. There was no need for him to play this shot. He has given Bangalore a sniff here. Anyway, with Narine at the other end, Nitish should have left the big-hitting for him. It's floated, full and around middle, Rana gets low and slog-sweeps it aerially towards wide long on. He does not middle it at all. AB de Villiers settles under it in the deep and takes the skier safely. 29 needed off 34 balls.
14.1 overs (0 Run) Full and on the pads, Rana tucks it to mid-wicket.
13.6 overs (1 Run) Make it 3 with a single on the final ball. Back of a length, on off. Rana hangs back and guides it past the keeper towards third man. The batters cross for a single.
13.5 overs (0 Run) Touch short and on off, Rana swivels and looks to pull it away but does not connect well. The ball hits his arms and rolls to the off side. Just 2 runs off the over so far.
13.4 overs (1 Run) On a length, outside off. Narine punches it through covers off the back foot for another single, at sweeper cover.
13.3 overs (1 Run) Rana skips down the track to a full-length delivery, outside off. He throws his bat at it. The ball takes the bottom end and goes to third man for a single.
13.2 overs (0 Run) Fuller and outside off. Rana hangs back and pushes it gently to point.
13.1 overs (0 Run) A length ball, on off. Rana defends it to the leg side.
Harshal Patel (2-0-13-2) is back into the attack.
12.6 overs (1 Run) Another single to end the over! On the pads, Rana tucks it to deep square leg. The batters cross for a single. The runs are ticking for Kolkata. 6 from this one.
12.5 overs (1 Run) Loopy ball, on middle. Narine sweeps it through square leg for one.
12.4 overs (1 Run) Darted on the pads, Rana clips it to square leg for another run.

12.1 overs (1 Run) LEG BYE! Loopy ball, on leg. Narine looks to sweep it but misses. The ball rolls out off the pads. The batters collect a leg bye. A mild appeal from Chahal follows, nothing from the umpire.
Yuzvendra Chahal is back on.
11.6 overs (1 Run) A length ball, on off. Narine hits it to long on for a single. 22 from the over and 38 needed now off 48 balls.
11.6 overs (1 Run) WIDE! Full and sliding down leg. Narine leaves it alone. Wide called. 100 up!
11.5 overs (6 Runs) SIX! All the way. Narine is taking away the game here. He gets the third maximum of the over. Slower one, fuller and outside off. Good extension of arms by Narine. He gets under the ball and muscles it over the long off fence for a biggie. AB de Villiers leaps near the ropes but the ball goes over him with ease.
11.5 overs (1 Run) WIDE! Pressure on the bowler now. He does not want to bowl in the hitting arc of Narine. A full-length ball, wide outside off. Narine leaves it alone. Wide called.
11.4 overs (6 Runs) SIX! Back-to-back maximums. It is all going right for Narine today. First with the ball now with the bat. Slower one, full and on leg. Narine hangs back and whips it over the mid-wicket fence for a maximum.
11.3 overs (6 Runs) SIX! BANG! Narine has come out with the freedom to hit and he starts with a biggie. Slightly short and on middle, Sunil Narine camps back and looks to pull it away. The ball takes the top edge and flies over the fine leg fence.
11.2 overs (1 Run) On a length, on off. Rana works it towards long on for a single.
11.1 overs (0 Run) A length ball, on off. Rana hangs back and flicks it to mid-wicket.
Sunil Narine has been promoted up the order to bring the rate further down. Also, Dan Christian is into the attack.
10.6 overs (0 Run) OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Whenever Virat Kohli needs a wicket, he dials Harshal Patel's number. And he never disappoints. A tidy over by him and it ends with a prized wicket of Iyer. Patel serves a short ball, sliding down the leg side at 132.1 kph, Venkatesh Iyer hangs back and looks to pull it across the line. The ball takes the gloves and goes to the right of Srikar Bharat, who moves to that side and takes a good catch. 60 needed off 54 balls, this is still Kolkata's game to lose.
10.5 overs (0 Run) A length ball, on off. Iyer stands tall and drives it to covers.
