Right then! It is a must win game for both the teams and Hyderabad haven't had the best of time with the bat recently. Kane Williamson has to step up today. And for Kolkata, if they lose, they are out of the competition. Surely it is going to be an exciting chase. Stay tuned...
Andre Russell is up for a chat. He says that it is good to get a strong finish to the innings and bowlers were bowling well, especially the seamers and he knew that if he stays till the end then they can get to a big score. Tells that 170 is a par score on this pitch and they did well to get to this total. Mentions that they need to bowl straight and mix up their pace well and need to nail yorkers and says that there is definitely  pressure and they are looking to get a good win here.
Hyderabad bowled well in patches. They started well but ended the Powerplay on the back foot. Umran Malik came into the attack and took two wickets in his first over and Hyderabad went onto control most of the middle phase. They let a partnership build in the back end and that final over from Washington Sundar cost them 20 runs. How much will that prove costly?
Kolkata struggled throughout the innings. Rahane, Rana, and Shreyas all got off to a great start but perished while changing the gears. The partnership between Russell and Billings started blossoming but their 66 runs stand came in 44 balls. It was only because of Dre Russ, that Kolkata put in a decent total. Andre Russell showed his class yet again as he smashed three sixes in the last over and missed out on his fifty by just a run, more than that, he gave the much needed finish!
It was always going to be tough for Sundar to bowl against Russell in the final over! 20 runs off it and Kolkata get past the 175-run mark.
19.6 overs (6 Runs) SIX! Third maximum of the over and this was always going to be a tricky option to bowl a spinner in the last over! Sundar goes 'round the wicket and bowls a full toss on middle again. Andre Russell gets under it and finishes the innings with another biggie as he slams this over cow corner. Kolkata finish with 177/6 after 20 overs!
19.5 overs (6 Runs) SIX! Sundar misses the mark and is punished! A low full toss on middle. Andre Russell gets under it and slogs it way over the mid-wicket fence for a biggie.
19.4 overs (0 Run) No single taken! Sundar bowls a good yorker on off. Andre Russell manages to hit it to long off but denies a single.
19.3 overs (6 Runs) SIX! Here we go...you are not going to get away with bowling full toss to Andre Russell in the last over! A full toss on middle at a good height and Andre Russell slams it over deep mid-wicket for maximum.
19.2 overs (1 Run) A flatter delivery, around leg. Narine makes room and hits it to deep extra-cover for a single.
19.1 overs (1 Run) Just a single! A full ball on middle. Andre Russell drills it to long on for a single.
Washington Sundar has one over left, will he bowl the final over? Yes, Sundar will bowl the final one.
18.6 overs (0 Run) A good yorker to end the over! It is outside off and Narine fails to dig it out. Just 6 from the over. Top-notch bowing by the senior bowler!
Sunil Narine walks out to the middle.
18.5 overs (0 Run) OUT! CAUGHT! Sam Billings departs and Bhuvneshwar Kumar is finally rewarded for some good bowling! It is length ball and outside off. A leg-cutter this and Billings looks to hit it over extra-cover. However, he gets the bottom of his blade and ends up hitting it straight to Kane Williamson at the extra-cover position in the ring. He takes an easy catch and Kolkata lose their sixth.

Review taken! Hyderabad take a review for LBW! The players are already walking back to their position because UltraEdge shows a spike on it.

Strategic Break! 4 overs remaining and if Russell bats along, Kolkata will look for a score around 180. It is possible as they bat deep. Hyderabad have to keep it tight and try and keep a lid on the run flow. Also, Bhuvneshwar Kumar is back on.
