Match Summary

Not the homecoming MS Dhoni could have dreamed of on his return to the captaincy. His side have been thoroughly outplayed by the defending IPL champions, who did indeed look the part today. The KKR spinners left CSK in a tangle, as their innings collapsed after Vijay Shankar’s dismissal.

Harshit Rana and Vaibhav Arora also picked up wickets, as CSK struggled to 103/9. In response, Narine received a first-ball six and then Quinton de Kock smocked Anshul Kambhoj for a six and topped it off with two more against Khaleel Ahmed.

He was eventually dismissed by Kambhoj but that was one of the few happy moments for the CSK players tonight. Rahane came in for de Kock and started with a elegant on drive, followed by a casual flick over square leg for a six. Ravi Ashwin was again expensive and Narine made merry of this paltry target.

Noor Ahmad hit the first ball to deprive Narine a fifty, but Rinku Singh came out to complete the game for Kolkata. A thrashing victory for KKR who triumph with almost ten overs to spare.
