VICTORY FOR RPS

Rahul Tripathi fell after a superb 93 but that was not enough for KKR to get back into the game. Daniel Christian strikes a six in the last over to finish off things. Two back-to-back losses for KKR now while RPS have three wins on the trot.

Only net run-rate separates these two teams at second and third position. It could still get very tight for the top two finish.

WICKET: Dhoni falls to Kuldeep again

The wrong 'un does the trick again for Kuldeep Yadav. Last time Dhoni was stumped. This time he opens the face of the bat and gets a thin edge to the 'keeper. Just 17 needed for victory though for RPS. Tripathi is still going strong at one end.

WICKET: Stokes falls

With just 25 needed, Stokes perishes to Narine. He top edges a swipe and Narine runs back and across to take it. In comes MS Dhoni to a rousing reception as usual.

No stopping Tripathi

Three consecutive sixes by Tripathi against Kuldeep Yadav and RPS are in driver's seat now. The youngster has a good chance of getting a ton as well. It is already his highest IPL score.

WICKET: Tiwary departs

Chris Woakes gets Manoj Tiwary with one that nips back in. The stumps are messed up as Tiwary gets a thin inside edge as well.

FIFTY FOR TRIPATHI

Gets it off just 23 balls. What a knock this has been on a not-so-easy pitch. Tripathi paddles Narine for a boundary to get to the milestone. He's stood apart with his bating in this game. Clearly a cut above.

WICKET: Smith falls

Steve Smith looks to make room for a shot through the offside but misses. Woakes hits timber. Second wicket for KKR but RPS have raced along thanks to Tripathi.

Rahul Tripathi takes charge

The youngster has played a string of awesome looking shots for boundaries. Cuts, pulls, lofted drives everything including against change of pace. He's just set this chase up nicely for RPS.

WICKET: Umesh gets Rahane

A snorter of a short ball gets Rahane edging behind to the 'keeper. He had lofted a short ball to the boundary just a ball before but Umesh Yadav has the last laugh. Important early breakthrough for KKR.

KKR finish with 155

It's a score that KKR will take after looking in danger of finishing with a lot lower. RPS will back themselves to chase this down but it is still something to bowl at for KKR. Suryakumar Yadav remains unbeaten on a 16-ball 30.

21 runs from the 19th over

Jaydev Unadkat had given only 7 runs in his first three overs but takes a caning in his final over. Suryakumar Yadav and Nathan Coulter-Nile providing a flourish to the innings.

Injury alarms

First it was Nathan Coulter-Nile struck by a mean bouncer from Dan Christian. The helmet was there to protect him though. No damage done there. A few balls later, Ben Stokes and Steve Smith collided near the boundary ropes while going for a catch. Smith went on crash his head into the advertisement hoardings as well but thankfully no damage done there as well.

WICKET: de Grandhomme departs

He was the only KKR batsman to get the better of the bowlers in this innings. However, he too is done in by a slower short ball from Unadkat. He gets a leading edge and falls after a 19-ball 36.

WICKET: Pandey falls

Another one bites the dust. A 32-ball 37 from Pandey comes to an end. The partnership is nipped in the bud as well.

A small fightback

Manish Pandey and Colin de Grandhomme are staging a fight back. The latter struck two sixes off Tahir to get going while Pandey is playing the steady hand. Still a lot of work to do though to get to a respectable total.

WICKET: Yusuf falls to Tahir

Imran Tahir continues to get the better of most batsmen in the IPL. Yusuf has no clue about this quicker one and is trapped plumb in front. KKR still struggling to get going.

KKR stutter on

Manish Pandey and Yusuf Pathan are trying to get the innings back on track but right now it is lacking in momentum. They are going at just over run-a-ball after nine overs. The pitch too has shown a tendency to be on the slower side. Not easy at all for the batsmen.

Gambhir hits back but falls!

Gambhir hit three fours and a six in the last six balls he has faced but goes a little overboard with it. He tries to hit Washington Sundar for one boundary too many and holes out to deep mid wicket. KKR 40/3 with one ball left in the Powerplay.

WICKET: Jacksot out hit wicket!

Doesn't happen often, does it? Sheldon Jackson has gone too far back in the crease while working a ball on the legside and has stepped on the stumps. A trifle unfortunate but RPS calling all the shots in the early stages of this game.

WICKET: Unadkat gets Narine

The first over is a wicket-maiden from Unadkat. Narine swung and missed a few times in the over and off the final ball hits it back to the bowler. Unadkat snaffles a sharp catch to give RPS the early breakthrough.

TOSS: RPS opt to bowl; Uthappa out

Big news from the KKR camp. Robin Uthappa has a hamstring injury and Suryakumar Yadav replaces him in the eleven. Sheldon Jackson will take up wicketkeeping duties. No changes for RPS.

Teams:

Kolkata Knight Riders (Playing XI): Sunil Narine, Gautam Gambhir(c), Manish Pandey, Yusuf Pathan, Suryakumar Yadav, Sheldon Jackson(w), Colin de Grandhomme, Chris Woakes, Nathan Coulter-Nile, Kuldeep Yadav, Umesh Yadav

Rising Pune Supergiant (Playing XI): Ajinkya Rahane, Rahul Tripathi, Steven Smith(c), Manoj Tiwary, Ben Stokes, MS Dhoni(w), Daniel Christian, Washington Sundar, Jaydev Unadkat, Shardul Thakur, Imran Tahir

Preview:

The race for the top four spots in the league stages of IPL 2017 is intensifying. KKR are sitting pretty at second spot right now. RPS are fairly comfortably placed at No. 4 as well. But the visitors can improve on their standing with a victory today. The battle for the top two positions is also crucial given the qualifier and eliminator scenario that will follow.

Both teams will feel that this game is as important as any other to follow. RPS has never won against KKR. The latter might start as favorites but the toss too could play a crucial factor here, given the dew that comes on later in the game.
