19.6: Sunil Narine to Glenn Maxwell, FOUR! Just short! Just short. Oh boy! Maxwell wants it to be checked but it is just short. Narine would have had his heart in his mouth for a second. What drama, what an anticlimax! It is a game of millimeters says Ian Bishop and that is oh so right. Coming to the ball now, what did Narine just bowl there. He fires it outside off. He invites Maxwell to hit towards the short side and Glenn does exactly that. He lofts it over covers. It bounces just inside the ropes and then goes over. A boundary signaled. They though go to check it upstairs as it is too close to call but replays show it lands just short. Heartbreak for Punjab. THEY LOSE BY 2 RUNS!

19.5: Sunil Narine to Mandeep Singh, OUT! TAKEN! The bigger side of the ground and Mandeep does not strike it cleanly and hence holes out. 7 needed from the last game. Kolkata can't lose unless an extra is bowled. It is slower through the air again and on middle. Narine gives no pace on the delivery. Singh goes for the slog sweep but only manages to hit it high up in the air. Green, the sub, settles under it and takes it brilliantly.
- 0
19.4: Sunil Narine to Glenn Maxwell, NOT OUT! It is going down leg! More importantly for Kolkata, it is just a single and Maxwell is off strike. It is slower again and angling into the pads. Maxwell swings but once again misses to get hit on the pads. An appeal but turned down. The ball rolls towards short third man. A leg bye is taken. Karthik reviews but replays show that the on-field call is the right one.

19.3: Sunil Narine to Glenn Maxwell, FOUR! Important boundary! 8 from 3 balls now! Innovation and it pays off. Maxwell brings out the reverse sweep. Nails it over the cover region and it goes for a boundary.
- 0
19.2: Sunil Narine to Glenn Maxwell, Make that 12 needed in 4! Lovely bowling! It is very slow and into the pads. Maxwell is early in the swing. He misses to get hit on the pads.

18.6: Prasidh Krishna to KL Rahul, OUT! TIMBER! That is a huge, huge wicket. Game now in Kolkata's favor. Rahul can't believe what he has done. Krishna is over the moon. It is a full toss outside off. Rahul looks to heave it on the leg side but gets an inside edge which hits the stumps. What a turnaround. Wow! Just Wow! 14 needed in the last over with two new batters out there.
- 2
18.5: Prasidh Krishna to KL Rahul, A couple! 14 needed in 7 now. A low full toss outside off. It is carved through covers for a couple. A very important ball coming up!
- 0
18.4: Prasidh Krishna to Prabhsimran Singh, OUT! TAKEN! Kolkata back in this one! Prabhsimran walks back after an innings which could well cost his team the game. It is shorter and around off. He looks to pull but is done in by the pace. It goes off the splice towards point where Rana runs back and takes a good catch. 16 in 8. Boundary needed.

17.6: Sunil Narine to Prabhsimran Singh, A single which Kolkata surely won't mind. 20 needed in 2 now. What a brilliant over from Narine. Just the two runs and a wicket from it. On the pads, it is worked down to fine leg for one.

- 0
17.2: Sunil Narine to Nicholas Pooran, OUT! TIMBER! Pooran is out of here but is it too late! They should have probably given Narine the over they gave to Nagarkoti. It is on middle, Pooran swings but misses. You miss I hit stuff from him. 21 needed in 16. A wicket more and the game might just get interesting.

18.2: Arshdeep Singh to Andre Russell, OUT! EDGED AND TAKEN! Arshdeep has his man and he is elated. Russell's poor form continues. This is brilliant. It is full and wide outside off. Russell swings again but it takes the outside edge and goes to the keeper who makes no mistake. Huge wicket, this could well make a difference of 10 runs to the final total.
- 4
18.1: Arshdeep Singh to Andre Russell, EDGY FOUR! That is full marks to the bowler but runs to the batter! Arshdeep gets it right. Full and outside off. Perfect yorker almost.

17.6: Mohammed Shami to Andre Russell, A nasty bumper and on middle to welcome Russell. He hops and defends it on the off side. One to get off the mark. 13 from the over and a wicket.
- 1
17.5: Mohammed Shami to Shubman Gill, OUT! Gill is short! He though has done his job. A fine, fine, innings from him comes to an end. He was tired so this wicket could well be a blessing in disguise for Kolkata as it will bring out Russell. Coming to the ball now, it is another slower one on middle, Shubman swings, it goes off the inner half towards deep square leg. They take one and go for the second. Singh in the deep, picks the ball up and fires it to the keeper who whips the bails off. The umpire takes it upstairs and replays show that Gill is short.
- 0
17.4: Mohammed Shami to Dinesh Karthik, A bye now! Shorter and outside off, it is a slower one. Dinesh looks to pull but misses. The keeper fails to collect it cleanly and a run is taken.
- 4
17.3: Mohammed Shami to Dinesh Karthik, FOUR! Brings up his fifty in style! The skipper comes to the fore when his team needed it. What an innings this is. He has provided his team the much-needed impetus and has probably played a match-winning knock. He gets there with a lovely shot. It is full and on off, Karthik makes room and slices it through the gap between point and short third man.
- 4
17.2: Mohammed Shami to Dinesh Karthik, FOUR! In the gap! Karthik is one short of a half ton now. Once again it is a boundary early in the over. A full toss. Punjab has all the fielders back on the boundary on the leg side but Karthik whips it right in the gap in front of square and bags a boundary.
- 2
17.1: Mohammed Shami to Dinesh Karthik, Overthrow and two! Karthik looks to innovate. He tries to play the reverse sweep but it is very full. He mistimes it towards the point region. They go for one. The fielder has a shy at the bowler's end. Had he hit, Dinesh was a goner but he misses and Kolkata take another run.
