Gujarat 120-3 (14 ovs) vs Kolkata 158-4 | Scorecard


Morkel to bowl out as he continues to bowl his fourth and final over. Three singles from the first three balls before Karthik plays the late cut, steering it fine on the off-side for a four.

He looks to scoop the next ball fine on the leg side but it goes off the back of the bat towards thirdman for one.

This is turning out to be a cracking innings from Karthik. He continues in his merry way as he pulls a short ball from Russell through square leg for a four.

Karthik's positive knock has given Raina a lot of breathing space and he is merely content to play the singles and rotate the strike.

Karthik attempts another pull shot as it goes off the gloves but wicketkeeper Uthappa can't hold on to the catch despite the dive.

The short ball tactic finally works against Raina. The left-hander finally loses patience as he top edges the pull shot but ends up hitting it straight into the hands of Hogg at fine leg to fall for 14.

No stopping Karthik though as he upper cuts the last ball of the over over point for a four.

Despite their captain's dismissal Gujarat look comfortable as they reach 120 for three in 14 overs, needing 39 from six overs for victory.
