19.6: Kamlesh Nagarkoti to Varun Aaron, On a length down the leg side, Varun moves to the leg side and looks to steer it towards third man but he misses it altogether. A perfect birthday gift for Shah Rukh Khan who celebrates it in a short while from now. KOLKATA WIN BY 60 RUNS!

18.3: Shivam Mavi to Kartik Tyagi, OUT! TAKEN! Trust Mavi to take it one-handed and he does. The 9th wicket goes down for Rajasthan. Full and on middle and leg, Tyagi looks to flick it on the leg side but ends up getting a leading edge back to the bowler. Shivam Mavi was a touch surprised that it came back to him. He manages to react quickly, get a hand to it but fumbles a touch, a couple of times, before he finally holds onto it.

17.3: Kamlesh Nagarkoti to Jofra Archer, OUT! CAUGHT! Shivam Mavi with the catch. Archer did not connect it well at all. Full and on middle and leg, Archer clears his front leg and looks to slog it over long on. However, he does not get it off the meat of the bat. He ends up getting it only as far as long on where Mavi completes the catch.

19.6: Kartik Tyagi to Eoin Morgan, SIX! That is going, going.... gone! Full ball on off and middle, Morgan clears his front foot and absolutely clubs this over the bowler's head for a huge biggie. It went over the sightscreen as well. KOLKATA FINISH WITH 191/7.

19.4: Kartik Tyagi to Eoin Morgan, Full and around off, driven down to long off. Morgan does not want the single. He wants to face the last two balls. Also, Stokes is there at long off and he does not want to take his arm on for a couple.

19.2: Kartik Tyagi to Pat Cummins, OUT! CAUGHT! Terrible result for Kolkata. Cummins is gone but it leaves Morgan at the non-striker's end only. Full and outside off, Cummins throws the kitchen sink at it. Gets a thick outside edge which goes to Sanju Samson behind. The Rajasthan keeper takes it with ease.

18.6: Ben Stokes to Eoin Morgan, FOUR! Stokes is not at all happy here. Outside off, Morgan cuts it nicely, to the right of backward point, for a boundary.

18.5: Ben Stokes to Eoin Morgan, SIX! Morgan is picking the slower balls easily here. Slower fuller ball around off, Eoin Morgan clears his front leg and powers this over the bowler's head for a huge maximum.

18.4: Ben Stokes to Eoin Morgan, SIX! And that brings up Morgan's half ton as well. Full and around off, he slogs this over deep mid-wicket for a biggie. What a way to bring up your fifty!

17.5: Jofra Archer to Eoin Morgan, A feeble appeal from Archer for a LBW. Fullish on middle and leg, Morgan looks to tuck it on the leg side but misses to get hit on the pads. It goes off the deflection to the off side and a leg bye is taken. Archer's appeal is not entertained as it was going down leg with the angle perhaps.

17.4: Jofra Archer to Pat Cummins, A direct hit and Cummins would have been gone. Full and around off, Cummins drives it to mid off and takes off for a single. Smith, at mid off, collects that and has a shy at the bowler's end but misses the stumps.

17.3: Jofra Archer to Pat Cummins, On off, Cummins strokes this uppishly but it lands safely in the fine leg region. A couple.

17.2: Jofra Archer to Pat Cummins, Full and around off, Pat Cummins thumps this past the bowler, the ball is racing away to the long off fence. Stokes runs in and dives and fields it excellently. Keeps it to just the two. The umpires though want to have a look if Stokes fielded it cleanly or did he touch the ropes. Multiple replays happen and nothing conclusive emerges. So, just the two.

17.1: Jofra Archer to Pat Cummins, Very full and outside off, Cummins fails to dig it out.
