Chawla vs. Russell steals the spotlight

Kolkata Knight Riders win by 157/7 over Mumbai Indians.

But spin struck with the first ball when Piyush Chawla had Venkatesh lbw for 42 off 21. Russell came out and smoked Chawla over the head for a six and a four in the next two overs, along with a drill through the covers. Chawla moved his field around, stationing a fielder on the rope just behind the umpire for the straight hit, and varied his pace even beyond 110 km/h as Russell took KKR past 100. After being hit for another six in the 13th over, this time by Rinku Singh, Chawla had the last laugh when Russell smashed a 117 km/h thunderbolt to deep midwicket.

Thushara and Bumrah then unleashed a barrage of yorkers in the last two overs and it was only a six each from Rinku and Ramandeep Singh that got KKR past 150.
