KKR 151-3 (16 ovs) vs Delhi

No stopping Narine as he takes the attack to Ashwin.

He smashes the first ball from the off-spinner through the covers for a four. He then top edges the sweep which goes high on the leg side but the fielder at deep square is unable to get to the catch as Narine gets two runs to complete his fifty from just 24 balls.

Narine then lofts Ashwin straight down the ground, clearing the long-on fence with ease for a six before he attempts another big hit down the ground but only for a single.

Rana sweeps the fifth ball for two runs but hits the last ball to the fielder at point as 15 runs come from the 15th over, to raise the 100-run stand for the fourth wicket.

Not a good day with the ball for Ashwin, who has been hit for 45 runs in three overs.

Pacer Deshpande is back into the attack. He starts his fourth over with a wide before Narine throws his bat at a wide delivery but is beaten and hits the next to the fielder on the off-side.

The left-hander then gets the third ball past point for two runs before he drives the next through the covers for one and Rana picks one to deep point.

Narine continues the flow of runs with a boundary through the covers off the last ball, as KKR reach 151-3 in 16 overs.
