Kolkata 117-3 (14 ovs) vs RCB | Scorecard

Chahal does well to keep Uthappa tied down for three balls in a row before he takes one to midwicket.

Shakib makes up for it as he comes down the track and lofts it over mid-on for a four before he takes a single from the last ball.

Shakib walks across his stumps and attempts the paddle scoop against Dinda, who beats him with well disguised slower ball. The left-hander throws his bat at the next ball which is wide but again the change of pace foxes the batsman. The third ball is a yorker which Shakib digs on the leg side for a single to square leg.

Uthappa drives a full delivery to long-off to bring up his half-century from 34 balls.

Dinda spoils the over as he oversteps and bowls a no-ball which also gifts KKR a free hit. But Shakib can only get a single from the free hit ball as he steers a full delivery to thirdman.

KKR in sight of a big total as they 117 for three in 14 overs. Uthappa has blasted his way to 51 from 35 balls, while Shakib has made 23 from 21 balls.
