Sreshth will bring you the chase. Let's see where this one goes.
Ravindu Lankesh: "I think the 17 runs extras will cost the game for the royals"
Just a reminder with the scenarios: if Knight Riders take it to 11 overs with the ball, their NRR will remain better than Punjab Kings.
David Williams: "Livingstone has to fire at some point. Fingers crossed he has a big knock today"
mohit: "Samson seems to be like a ok captain and bad wicket keeper for RR which will be a concern for coming season, so many miss fielding by captain WK"
Iyer on Knight Riders' innings: "I think not losing wickets upfront was the key. We didn't have enough runs in the powerplay. The wicket was double-paced, and we are very happy with the total we have now. The key is accuracy in whatever lengths we bowl. The normal good length balls are difficult to play here, especially with the change-ups. We are treating this as just another match."
7.44pm Highest score in Sharjah this season. Healthy contributions from Gill and Iyer - yet again - as Tripathi, Karthik and Morgan do the mopping up job in the end. Knight Riders were pulled back a bit towards the death overs when they lost a couple of wickets, but they will take 171 with both hands.
