KKR vs CSK Highlights Dream11 IPL 2020: Kolkata Knight Riders Beat Chennai Super Kings by 10 Runs

KKR Win By 10 Runs!! What an emphatic comeback this has been from the Kolkata Knight Riders. Spin twins Sunil Narine and Varun Chakravarthy bowled sensatinally in the death overs as CSK batsmen couldn't find boundaries despite having wicket in hand. MS Dhoni's troop have now lost four of their first six games and they need to rework on their strategies to stay in the playoff race. On the other hand, Dinesh Karthik and Co advance to the third position in the team standings.

OUT! MS Dhoni is the latest man to go back to the pavilion as KKR are dramatically back in the contest. The CSK skipper says enough is enough as he goes for a big shot but completely misses the ball and timber gets disturbed. Varun Chakravarthy gets the big fish and he's delighted. Dhoni b Chakravarthy 11(12)

OUT! Another one bites the dust and its the big fish this time. Shane Watson departs and KKR are right back in the contest. Sunil Narine gets his first wicket of the night. It was a straight delivery from the mysterious off-spinner which bamboozled Watson's deference and the veteran was judged out LBW. Though the Australian star challenged the decision,  the review showed that the ball was clearly hitting the timber. Third man down for CSK. Watson lbw b Narine 50(40)

OUT! A wicket falls against the run of play as Ambati Rayudu goes back to the pavilion. Kamlesh Nagarkoti gets his first wicket of the night and he's delighted. The veteran batsman went for a big shot but miscued it completely and Shubman Gill took an easy catch at the long-on boundary.  Is there a twist in the tale. Rayudu c Shubman Gill b K Nagarkoti 30(27)

Shane Watson is back in form and how! the Australian star attacked the bowlers after assessing the conditions well as CSK are well placed on the driver's seat. The Men in Yellow need just 78 runs from the last 10 overs and that too with nine wickets in need. KKR certainly to do some magic with the ball or it will be a cakewalk for Chennai.

Despite the early departure of Faf du Plessis, CSK are off to a steady start. Ambati Rayudu joins Shane Watson at the crease as the scoring rate is nine. The Men in Yellow must be happy with the start while KKR badly need another breakthrough.

OUT! Some relief in the KKR camp as Shivam Mavi dismisses the dangerous Faf du Plessis. The Proteas star, who had already gathered three boundaries, went for another big shot against a short delivery but could only manage to edge it and skipper Dinesh Karthik takes an easy catch behind the stumps. The wicket-keepers have been busy tonight. Du Plessis c Karthik b Shivam Mavi 17(10)

Shane Watson and Faf du Plessis extend their sensational run as CSK are off to a flying start. Watson has been troubled on occasion but the South African star has completely ruthless, collecting three boundaries. KKR badly need a wicket.

The players are back in the middle as CSK's chase begins. In-form openers Shane Watson and Faf du Plessis are the two openers for Chennai while Pat Cummins will start the proceedings with the ball.

Dwayne Bravo has certainly made his 37th birthday special. The Caribbean star put up an exhibition of death bowling as KKR lost wickets in a cluster. As a result, they were bundled out for mere 167 runs despite getting off to a great start by Rahul Tripathi. Not to forget, that sensational diving catch by MS Dhoni. Age is certainly just a number for this guy. Neverthless,  168 is certainly not a mediocre total and CSK need to put an substantial show to get the target. Do join us back in the second half of the game.

OUT! The Birthday boy Dwayne Bravo strikes and its Rahul Tripathi who has to go back to the pavilion. It was a yorker-length delivery which Tripathi wanted to guide to the third-man boundary rope. However, it went straight to Shane Watson who was placed inside the circle. Nevertheless, a sensational effort by the youngster. Tripathi c Watson b Dwayne Bravo 81(51).

OUT! And Andre Russell's poor run in Dream11 IPL 2020 continues. He departs for just two against his favourite team. Shardul Thakur gets the big scalp and he's delighted. It was a short delivery from the pacer which invited a pull shot from the Caribbean swashbuckler. However, all Russell could manage was an edge and MS Dhoni completes another easy catch. Russell c Dhoni b SN Thakur 2(4)

OUT!  Sunil Narine's  small cameo comes to an end courtesy a special effort at boundary from Ravindra Jadeja. The southpaw went for a big shot but Jadeja took an excellent diving catch at the mid-wicket boundary. Just when Saurashtra star thought he would touch the boundary ropes, he passed the ball to Faf du Plessis as Narine became a victim of a sensational effort. Third one down for KKR. Narine c du Plessis b Karn Sharma 17(9)

FIFTY for Rahul Tripathi in his first assignment as opener in IPL 2020. The move has certainly paid off as Tripathi has looked simply unstoppable. Though there were some rash shots, his way of pacing the innings was appreciable. Meanwhile, Sunil Narine is the new man in for KKR and he gets a six off his fourth ball. Kolkata have spiced up their batting order and how! At half-way mark, KKR are 93/2.

OUT! This is exactly what KKR didn't need at this stage. Nitish Rana goes for a big slot sweep against Karn Sharma. However, the shot doesn't get the required elevation and the ball goes to the safest fielder in the ground: Ravindra Jadeja. Second one down for KKR as CSK are right back in the hunt. Nitish Rana c Jadeja b Karn Sharma 9(10)

OUT! Just what the doctor ordered for CSK! Shardul Thakur strikes with his second ball as Shubman Gill walks back to the pavilion. The youngster goes for a cross-bated shot against a length ball but only manages to edge it and MS Dhoni is safe as houses behind the stumps. First man down for KKR. Shubman Gill c Dhoni b S Thakur 11(12)

Shubman Gill and Rahul Tripathi have indeed got KKR off to a steady start, something which they were lacking in previous games. After assessing the conditions well in the first two overs, the duo took on Deepak Chahar in the third over and scored three boundaries. Kolkata will be happy with the start while CSK must be raring to get a wicket.

The action gets underway as the players are out in the middle. Interestingly,  its not Sunil Narine but Rahul Tripathi who has opened the KKR innings alongside Shubman Gill. For CSK, Deepak Chahar starts proceedings with the ball.
