KKR 205-4 (17 ovs) vs Punjab | Scorecard

Mujeeb, who earlier went off the field with an injury after being struck by a powerful blow from Narine, comes back into the attack.

Karthik slog sweeps the first ball for a six before he attempts the same shot two balls later but gets a top edge over the wicketkeeper for a four.

Karthik sweeps the fourth ball over square leg for another six and then takes a single on the off-side.

The last ball is down the leg side as Russell glances it fine for a four to get 21 from the over, with 40 coming from the last two as KKR are set for a huge total.

Tye, who has taken three for 19 in two overs so far, comes back into the attack.

He starts with a slower bouncer as Karthik pulls it over short fine leg for a six and then takes one.

Russell then carves a wide full delivery over short thirdman for a four to take KKR past the 200-run mark, in the 17th over and then takes one before the pacer bowls a wide.

A single to Karthik before Tye bowls another wide as he attempts the slower bouncer which bounces a lot more than expected.

Russell swings at the next one but gets the top edge as wicketkeeper KL Rahul takes the catch on the leg side.

Russell walks back after a quickfire 31 from 14 balls as KKR reach 205 for four in 17 overs.
