After Sudharsan was back in the hut, Jos Buttler (41*) joined hands with skipper Gill, and the duo together went on to put in 58 runs for the second wicket.

Kolkata Knight Riders didn’t have a great start to their innings as Rahmanullah Gurbaz fell in the first over. After that, Sunil Narine (17) and skipper Ajinkya Rahane (50) put the pressure back on the Gujarat bowlers with their 41-run stand.
Skipper Rahane slammed a brilliant half-century, but he didn’t get the support from the other end. Andre Russell (21) looked in threatening mode, but Rashid Khan had the better of him. Gujarat kept taking wickets at regular intervals and reduced Kolkata to 159 to win the game by 39 runs.
