Kolkata Knight Riders won the toss and elected to field. They made three changes to their side while Kings XI Punjab included IShant Sharma in place of T Natarajan

Manan Vohra helped Kings Xi Punjab off to a good. Alongwith Hashim Amla he added 53 runs for the opening wicket in 31 balls

Sunil Narine may have had a good day with the bat and ball, but was abysmal in the field. He dropped catches and misfielded. Unfortunately for Trent Boult, they were all of his bowling.

Hashim Amla got off to a good start and scored some beautiful boundaries, but became scratchy after the Powerplay overs

Glenn Maxwell carried on from where he had left. Piyush Chawla got clobbered for a few, before he was eventually dismissed by Umesh Yadav for a 15-ball 24

David Miller and Wriddhiman Saha put on a 57-run stand for the fifth wicket off 32 balls to set up Kings XI Punjab's innings superbly, but departed off successive deliveries

Umesh Yadav bagged three wickets in the 18th over to derail Kings Xi Punjab's innings and restrict them to 170. His bowling figures of 4 for 33 is the best in the season so far

In a surprising move, Sunil Narine was sent in to open the innings with Gautam Gambhir. The West Indian took on the Kings Xi Punjab bowlers and hammered a 18-ball 37 - his highest T20 score. Also, he put on a 76-run stand for the opening wicket in only 34 balls

Gautam Gambhir led Kolkata Knight Riders' chase with a fine unbeaten 49-ball 72. The hosts began their campaign on a winning note, chasing down the target with eight wickets in hand
