Full Match Story of KXIP vs KKR IPL 2016

The Kolkata Knight Riders took flight to the highest point of the VIVO IPL 2016 standings after they vanquished Kings XI Punjab by six wickets at the IS Bindra Stadium in Mohali on Tuesday. In the wake of putting the hosts in, KKR welled to limit KXIP to an under-standard 138-8 and after that knocked off the required keeps running in 17.1 overs.

Robin Uthappa set the tone for the innings with two limits – one of them falling off the cushion – of the initial two conveyances of the pursuit, while his opening accomplice Gautam Gambhir solidified his hold on the Orange Cap with yet another measured innings. Uthappa was certain and unquestionably the more forceful and gutsy of the two KKR openers; he hit over spread, worked the chunk of the cushions and pulled through midwicket. The pair raised 50 on the board in 4.4 overs and extended their relationship to 65 keeps running before the handling confinements were casual.

At the point when the spinners were brought into the assault, Gambhir poked the ball into the holes and kept on dropping and run while Uthappa utilized the range and invert clear, and raised his half-century off 24 balls. Uthappa was rejected in the ninth over when he didn't reach while endeavoring a scope off Pardeep Sahu and was caught in front the stumps; he made 53 from 28 balls and hit nine limits.

Gambhir's innings was diminished by a remarkable catch by Maxwell running in from the midwicket limit; he was released for run-a-ball 34 in the eleventh over with KKR 42 flees from a win. In spite of the fact that KKR lost Manish Pandey (12 from 11 balls) and Shakib-al-Hasan (11 from 15 balls) from that point, the stage set by the openers implied there was no weight on the batsmen who took after. Suryakumar Yadav (11) and Yusuf Pathan (12) took the group past the completion line.

Sahu (2-18) and Axar Patel (2-19) were the wicket-takers for KXIP, while 8.1 overs of pace cost the home group 82 keeps running with no profits.

Prior at night, Kings XI Punjab got off to an unfaltering begin - this, in spite of losing the wicket of Manan Vohra inexpensively. 41 for 1 when the field limitations were facilitated, KKR lost their second wicket not long after in the eighth over when Murali Vijay was castled by a very much masked googly from Piyush Chawla. KXIP 47 for 2.

That wicket opened up the conduits and there was a parade from there on as the following six KXIP batsmen were all released for single-digit scores. Wriddhiman Saha, elevated to number four, edged Sunil Narine to Robin Uthappa in the eleventh over, David Miller was splendidly pouched by Uthappa off the rocking the bowling alley of Yusuf Pathan and Glenn Maxwell's switch-hit – which fell off the center of the bat – was pouched by Chawla at spread moving quickly to one side.

It was just a full grown and mindful half-century from Shaun Marsh, and a cameo from Kyle Abbott comfortable end that helped them to 138-8. Bog stayed unbeaten on 56 from 41 balls, helped with five limits and a six, while Abbott hit 12 from 6 balls. Seven KXIP batsmen were rejected for single-digit scores on the day.

The guests were quite restrained with the ball. The spinners specifically rocked the bowling alley to a great degree well on a surface that managed them turn. Narine knocked down some pins his four overs for 22, representing the scalps of Saha and Maxwell. Chawla came back with figures of 3-0-18-1, while Yusuf Pathan, who got a wicket with his first ball, amazed the one for six runs. Shakib kept things tight as well, surrendering just 28 keeps running in his four overs. The pacers did their bit also; Morne Morkel (4-0-27-2) – who for the most part played back of a length - gave the group the main leap forward as Vohra and came back to release Mohit Sharma, while Umesh Yadav rocked the bowling alley his three overs for 17 and rejected Axar Patel. It was amazing to see the KKR captain toss the ball to Andre Russell to bowl the last over, when he could have one more over from Yadav.
