KKR 76-1 (8 ovs) vs Pune 182-5 | Scorecard

With the Powerplay done with, Pune introduce leg-spinner Imran Tahir. He is unlucky not to get a wicket in his first over as Uthappa is dropped on the midwicket fence by Unadkat. Uthappa went for the slog sweep but only managed to miscue it high on the leg side but Unadkat was unable to judge it cleanly and hold on to it. And to add insult to injury, he lets it go through for a boundary.

Gambhir smashes the last ball back over the bowler's head for another boundary as Tahir goes for 11 in his first over.

That drop is hurting Pune already as Uthappa goes after Sundar in his next over. He steers the first ball fine past short thirdman for a four before hitting back to back sixes over long-off and long-on respectively.

Sundar goes for 20 in his third as KKR race to 76 for one in eight overs, with Uthappa on 34 from 18 balls and Gambhir on 22 from 19 balls.
