Right then! Kolkata have 216 to chase and it is a mountain to climb. Their batters will need to go guns blazing right from the start. It will be very interesting to see how they will approach this chase. Do stay tuned to find out...

Prithvi Shaw is up for a quick chat. He says that he is fine after the blow on the helmet. Adds that he was keeping it simple from his side and it was a good wicket and they had a good Powerplay. Tells that he had a great partnership with Warner and he hopes that they can continue the good form in the next game. Mentions that according to him, Kolkata had a plan to bowl slower deliveries from the end that has longer boundaries and feels that they played well to get to 215 in the end.

Kolkata bowlers didn't have the best of starts with the ball as the bowlers were taken to the cleaners and the runs were just flowing left, right and center. After dealing with the carnage initially, they still had to toil hard for the breakthrough but it finally came via Varun Chakaravarthy. The bowlers still were struggling to find the correct rhythm but Sunil Narine bowled an excellent spell and triggered a mini-collapse with his two wickets. They did well to sustain Delhi for a while after that but that 39 runs off the last 2 overs would hurt them a lot and as a result, have a gigantic score in front of their noses.

The pitch is a belter to bat and when the pitch is a batting paradise, players like Shaw and Warner are hard to stop. Both the openers made full use of the Powerplay and only dealt in boundaries. They got Delhi off to a flying start and set the platform for others. The duo stitched 93 runs for the opening stand before Shaw got out. Pant played a breezy cameo and departed. Warner also got out later but Shardul Thakur and Axar Patel batted brilliantly. It looked at one stage that they would end up below 200 but certainly Thakur and Patel had other plans. Amazing batting display from Delhi and they would fancy their chances here.

A clinical performance from Delhi! Their top-order ignited fire right from the word go and then Shardul Thakur and Axar Patel did proper justice to that with both batsmen hitting some lusty blows. Kolkata bowlers had no answers at the start and they were starring down the barrel for the most part of the game. They now have a huge score in front of them and Delhi would be the happier team heading to the break.

19.6 overs (6 Runs) SIX! No, he can't! Shardul Thakur finishes the innings in style! This is a full delivery on off, in the slot. Thakur heaves it and it goes high in the air over deep mid-wicket fence for a maximum. Delhi finish with 215/5 after 20 overs!

19.5 overs (1 Run) Single now, 10 runs from the over so far! A shorter delivery on middle. Patel pulls it to deep square leg for a single. Can Cummins finish off this over well now?

19.3 overs (1 Run) Very full, on off. Thakur drills it to long on for a single.

16.6 overs (0 Run) Dot ball to end the over! Top-notch over from the pacer! It is a shorter length delivery, around off. Patel dances down the track and looks to pull it but misses.

Warner looks to pull but fails to get the desired timing. The ball goes in the air towards deep mid-wicket and Ajinkya Rahane takes an easy catch.  Delhi are losing their way here. They looked well on their way to get over 220 at one point of time but now the wicket of Warner will be a big blow for them.

Umesh Yadav (2-0-20-0) is back into the attack.

15.6 overs (0 Run) A flatter delivery on off. Warner punches it to covers this time. Great over from Narine, he finishes his spell with figures of (4-0-21-2).

Drinks! Kolkata are crawling their way back here with timely wickets. Delhi though woud be confident of getting anything above 200 as they still have David Warner at the crease who is looking ominous. If Kolkata manages to get him out then it might make a difference of 15-20 runs at the end. Axar Patel is the new batsman in.

15.1 overs (0 Run) OUT! CAUGHT! Sunil Narine gets his second wicket and gets rid of dangerous Rovman Powell! Three wickets in quick succession for Kolkata now and now they will fancy their chances of restricting Delhi around 210. Narine goes fuller on off. Rovman Powell goes low and slog-sweeps it. However, the elevation is there but not enough distance for the big man from the Caribbean. The ball goes very high in the air towards deep mid-wicket and Rinku Singh, the substitute fielder runs to his left and takes a good catch. Big wicket for Kolkata!
