Rant. Another game and a certain Hettmyer missing even if ABD not playing.
He really screwed himself over with those 4 consecutive failures.

Narine to Kohli, no run, KKR's LBW review. Narine gets this to rip in big, beats Kohli's flick and finds his front pad. Now, it's struck him in front of leg, it's hit the knee roll as well in a massive stride. But it's not needed much convincing for the bowler or DK to take it up.In fact it's missed the leg-stump by another cool two stumps

Even the Kolkata crowd are going bonkers. Special knock from the Indian captain. Shuffles across his stumps and whiplashes it through mid-wicket. Kuldeep's miserable day continues as he fails to stop the ball near the fence

Virat Kohli, Man of the Match:
Felt really good, after what happened last year. Was important to have a win under our belt. There's no point in panicking. You got to leave it to the bowlers. Few good decisions by Stoinis and then Moeen in the end. They both showed composure and that's what you expect from our teams mates.
