Kolkata Knight Riders vs Lucknow Super Giants, 21st Match

16.2
Harshit Rana to Pooran, SIX, 21-ball fifty for Pooran. He's on a purple patch this season. Everyone in that LSG dugout has a smile on his face as he raises his bat to acknowledge the applause. Rana goes pace on and lands it right in the slot, Pooran clears his front leg and smokes it over wide long-on. All power.

Russell to Pooran, FOUR, that's more the line and length which troubles Pooran. Well-directed short ball from Russell and Pooran takes it on, he gets a top-edge and the ball flies fine. Rana makes a mess near fine leg and concedes the boundary

Russell to Pooran, SIX, 24 runs from the over. At this rate he's on course to a hundred. Russell tries to change his length and goes full, but that's bread and butter for Pooran, with a cleared front leg he smashes this over long-off

17.5
Russell to Pooran, FOUR, rolls his fingers over the ball and bowls it into the pitch, Pooran stays leg-side and gives himself the space to free his hands, thumps the pull towards deep mid-wicket and beats the fielder near the rope

17.4
Russell to Pooran, SIX, better height on this short ball but the line is on middle and leg, Pooran gets into a nice position and nauls the pull for a 93-meter maximum over deep square leg. He's just dealing in fours and sixes now.,

17.3
Russell to Pooran, FOUR, short of length but around leg-stump, that's not the line as Pooran is able to get under the shot, need to make him fetch the pull/hook, this one just sits up and he belts it to the right of deep square leg
