Kolkata Knight Riders 112 for 5 (Hussey 38*, Extras 28) beat Deccan Chargers 110 (Symonds 32, Kartik 3-17) by five wickets
A minefield of a pitch at Eden Gardens was the setting for an intense thriller as the Kolkata Knight Riders, driven by an innings of grit and tenacity from David Hussey, scraped home by five wickets in a low-scorer against Deccan Chargers. There was no shortage of drama during the chase of 111 and a floodlight failure towards the end only added to the tension. In the end, Kolkata managed their second straight victory and the usually raucous home crowd got their money’s worth.
