2.5 to N Jagadeesan, huge appeal, and given! Full delivery angled into off stump. Jagadeesan walks across his stumps and then plays all over it as the ball smashes into the pads. Shami goes up and so does the umpire's finger Jagadeesan wants to have another look at this but if the impact is in line, it could be curtains! No bat involved and that hit him just below the knee roll of the front pad. Impact is in line too, and Ball Tracking shows the ball smashing into the middle of middle stump. Jagadeesan has to go!. 23/1 4.6 to SN Thakur, taken brilliantly by Mohit running back from mid on! Full and angled into the stumps. Shardul plants his front foot and looks to go over mid on. He does not time it very well, though, and the ball goes miles up into the air. Mohit judges it, runs back and then takes a sensational catch over his shoulder!. 47/2 19.6 to AD Russell, taken at deep point! What an anti-climax! Full and hung outside off stump. Russell throws the kitchen sink at it but the ball is just too far away from his arc. Slices it eventually and hits it straight down deep point's throat!. 179/7 See all photos

10.1 to VR Iyer, huge appeal, and that looks very adjacent! Full and slanted into middle and off stump. Iyer, who is standing a foot outside leg stump even before the ball has been bowled, now decides to walk across and lap it. He misses it and is pinned on the back leg, right in front of middle and leg stump. The umpire has no hesitation in raising his finger but Iyer, for some reason, wants to have another look. This already seems a very poor review. Indeed it is. No bat involved and that is thundering into middle stump. KKR have burnt both of their reviews and they have been very ordinary, to say the least!. 84/3 10.4 to N Rana, straight to backward point! Back of a length delivery outside off stump that seems to stick in the surface just a tad. Nitish has a waft at it but does so without any conviction, spooning it straight to the fielder in the circle! KKR lose two in quick succession, and Gujarat are right back in this!. 88/4 See all photos
Noor Ahmad	4	0	21	2	5.25	12	1	1	1	0
15.2 to Rahmanullah Gurbaz, holes out to deep mid wicket! Very full delivery at the pads that seems to cramp Gurbaz up for room. He has a swing at it anyway but cannot generate the power he is after. Arrows it towards deep mid wicket, where Rashid comes in from the fence and completes a smart take diving forward! What a knock this has been, though! It has, almost single-handedly, kept KKR in the hunt for a score in the 180-190 region!. 135/5 17.3 to RK Singh, Noor gets Rinku! Flighted nicely on a full length outside off stump. Rinku's eyes light up but this one is just far enough away from his hitting arc. He has a swing at it but slices it. Little settles himself at long off and does the rest! After the high of his previous game against GT, this is not a knock Rinku will look back on fondly!. 156/6

10.4 to HH Pandya, Harshit breaks through! Full and slanted into middle and off stump. Hardik shuffles across and then plays all over it. Gets pinned on the pads and the umpire has no hesitation in raising his finger! Hardik does not even bother with the review and that is the right call. That was plumb in front!. 91/2 See all photos
Andre Russell	3	0	29	1	9.66	6	3	1	1	0
4.1 to WP Saha, and he snaps up Saha! Full delivery outside off stump. Saha looks to go downtown but makes a mess of his stroke. He is too early into the shot and gets it right off the toe-end of the bat. Harshit settles himself at mid wicket and completes the catch without much fuss!. 41/1 See all photos

11.2 to Shubman Gill, skies it and Narine bags Gill! Given just a hint of air on a full length outside off stump. Gill comes down the track and tries to tonk it into next week. Does not get to the pitch of the ball, though, and shanks it off the toe-end towards deep mid wicket. Russell does the rest and the noise at the Eden Gardens now is deafening!. 93/3
