The chase for the Kolkata side began in a bad taste with just 16 runs coming off the first four overs and Rahane getting out immediately afterward. Venkatesh Iyer though continued from his end and played till the very end and was witness to the Cummins Carnage that took place.
The KKR innings moved scratchily up till 83-4 in the 12th over when Andre Russell joined in. He hit a few big shots and Venkatesh reached his fifty too. Just after Russell's wicket Cummins came and in just 15 balls, hit 56 of the remaining 61 runs needed.
Earlier in the evening, after being asked to bat first, Mumbai Indians reached 161-4 courtesy of a fifty from Suryakumar Yadav, 38 from Tilak Varma, and 5 ball 22 from Pollard.

Pat Cummins faced 7 deliveries and hit 35 runs in the 16th over and when the over started, KKR needed 35 off 30 balls and when it ended it was all over. In that over, Cummins hit four 6s and two 4s and got a free hit no-ball and a chance as he was caught of that no-ball as well.
11:11 PM
Not only did Cummins hit the joint-fastest IPL fifty off just 14 balls equalling KL Rahul’s record, but he also had the third biggest over in IPL history, getting 35 runs from the Danuile Sams over. Prior to it, Ravindra Jadeja and Chris Gayle had hit 36 runs off an over.
11:02 PM
Pat Cummins was able to hit a four and a six of the best Mumbai bowler and he has now taken the match almost to an end as the Kolkata side now need only 35 off the last 30 balls and it should be easy from here on.
Just as I say that he has hot yet another six and now it is only 29 off 29 and run a ball is as easy as it gets.
And seems like Pat Cummins has come out of the syllabus for MI. Now only 25 needed off 28 balls as he has yet another boundary and my word you can’t stop him He has yet another six. Yes yet another six and he is on 38 from 11 balls
Six!! Once again he has hit this for a six and might here be aiming for the fastes fifty here as he has now gone to 44 off just 12 balls
No ball!! No ball for the height and Surya takes a brilliant catch at the boundary and now it is being checked whether it was six or not, if not, Cummins would be on non-strike on the free-hit. Well no he has taken two so he will be on strike and he has a free hit and now he is on 46 off 13 balls
Four!! Wow just wow, speechless as Cummins reaches the joint-fastest fifty in IPL history off just 14 balls, and with a six off the last ball, he has won it in just one over. Yes, in just one over, he has won the game, making 56 off 15 balls.

From here on it is KKR’s game to lose now as they need even below 8 runs per over with a set Venkatesh Iyer and a dangerous Pat Cummins who has already hit two boundaries in two balls and is looking set to finish the game. A Time out has been taken and KKR need to make sure that they don’t lose from here on

Over Summary W
Tymal Mills comes into the attack
Wicket!! Both Mills and Bumrah were kept for Russell by Rohit Sharma and it has worked finally as not Bumrah, but Mills with the angle going away from the right-hander, has done the trick and with a bouncer, managed to get the edge of Russell’s bat and Dewalsd Brevis at short-third makes no mistake and KKR lose five for 101

Jasprit Bumrah comes into the attack
Bumrah’s overs were saved up by Rohit just to play the matchup against Andre Russell and we are in for it here
Four!! Bouncer from Bumrah and Russell says I will have a go at it and he has and gets it over the wicket-keeper for four runs
Into Russell this time and quick as well and all Russell could do is play it back to the bowler
Four!! Venky though will ike it into him and as the ball comes close to his padas, he has turned it to deep fine leg and gets a four for it as well

A huge appeal here from Mumbai Indians against Venkatesh Iyer who almost changed sides and went to become right-hander and the ball hit his pads. And the batters eventually took two runs for the overthrow, but MI didn’t take the review
Six!! And Venky goes big and hits this over deep square leg for a six. Venkatesh here has got going finally into the third game and although he is on 30 off 31 balls, against his fortay pf scoring runs quickly, but still, he has been doing well
Wicket!! And as I say this, Sam Billings goes for an inside-out shot and is caught at long-off by Basil Thampi, and the third wicket falls for KKR

Daniel Sams comes into the attack
Four!! In the air and over and above the short third-man and it goes for four runs
Shreyas Iyer was dropped on his very first ball by Ishan Kishan which was a difficult chance going down leg, but he got his gloves to the ball and hence it would be counted a dropped chance
Four!! Cuts this for four does, Venkatesh. That is brilliant batting
Wicket!! In the air and taken at deep square leg by Tilak Varma as Sams strike with a short ball and Shreyas Iyer perishes. KKR 35/2

Tymal Mills comes into the attack
Wicket!! The wicket was built up by Thampi, Sams, and Bumrah and Tyaml Mills here has reaped the rewards of the hard work of his comrades as Rahane, trying to up the ante, hits it in the air and is caught at deep square leg by Sams and KKr are in all sorts of problem here at 16-1

Jasprit Bumrah comes into the attack
And Bumrah starts with a ball that leaves Venky beaten once again and on the second ball too, the result is the same
The pressure is building big time on Kolkata side as they are unable to get the runs here and so far un four overs, they are 16-0 none and they now need 146 in just 96 balls with the run rate going past 9 runs already

Over Summary 0 4 0 0 0 1
Bail Thampi continues from the other end
Dot will start the over as Venkatesh Iyer hasn’t got going here
Four!! Improvisation as Venky comes across to the offside and picks the ball from off stumps and ramps it over short fine leg for a four
Peach of a delivery this from Thampi as it beats Venky all ends up and just misses the edge of a bat that hung in the air trying hard to meet the ball
Great fielding from Brevis at Point as he stops a very fluent cut shot from Venky and the dot ball pressure mounts

Over Summary 1 1 2 0 1 1
Daniel Sams is into the attack
In the air… and falls just short of diving Dewald Brevis at third-man. He went for the catch although it never looked like a catch as it was always falling on him
Appeal fro LBW from Sams as it hits Rahane on the pads but there was clearly the bat involved
It has been a good over from Sams as he has given away six runs off it

Basil Thampi starts the proceedings for MI with Venkatesh Iyer and Ajnikya Rahane as openers for KKR facing him
A direct hit from Suryakumar Yadav but the batter was clearly in and two runs have come off the first three balls as the bail was replaced by the umpire
