KKR 150 for 4 (Bisla 51*, Mahmood 3-35) beat Kings XI Punjab 149 for 6 (Vohra 31, Kallis 2-14) by six wickets
We know that we are in a desperate situation," Kolkata Knight Riders
captain Gautam Gambhir said before the start of the match. With three
consecutive defeats coming into this game, the defending champions
Knight Riders were in disarray. To add to that, in the lead-up to the
game, their allrounder Jacques Kallis - who hadn't missed a game since
joining the franchise in 2011 - was a doubtful starter after twisting
his right knee in the previous match. And one of their experienced local
batsmen, Manoj Tiwary, had an injury to his right hand.
However, at a noisy Eden Gardens, Knight Riders injected some life into their campaign with a straightforward six-wicket win over Kings XI Punjab.
