KKR 17-1 (2 ovs) SRH 113 | Scorecard

Rahmanullah Gurbaz and Sunil Narine are the two openers for KKR, while Bhuvneshwar Kumar will open the bowling for SRH, who need some early wickets in the Powerplay to get back into the contest.

Gurbaz uses his feet first ball as he tries to defend Bhuvneshwar but is beaten as the pacer gets some away movement.

The KKR opener slashes the next ball past point for a four to get off the mark in smashing fashion.

Bhuvneshwar bowls a short ball away from the stumps which is ruled a wide before Gurbaz is beaten next ball trying to drive and he keeps out the last two balls.

Pat Cummins strikes the early blow for SRH.

Narine swings the first ball from the SRH captain over midwicket for a six to get off the mark in positive fashion.

But Cummins gets revenge as he strikes with the wicket of the dangerous Sunil Narine, who is caught at deep midwicket for six.

Narine makes room and looks to clip the pacer off his pads but gets the leading edge and is taken by Shahbaz rushing in from deep midwicket.

Cummins bowls a wide down the leg side to new batter Venkatesh Iyer as Klaaasen dives across and gets a glove on it to keep it down to two wides.

Gurbaz lofts the fifth ball over the fielder in the covers for a boundary.
