KKR 114/9 (17.0 Ovs) | Chennai Super Kings Vs Kolkata Knight Riders Live Score, 21st T20

So Chennai's winning run continues. And that brings to an end today's game. Before we sign off, let me remind you that tomorrow is a double-header with Mumbai taking on Punjab and Delhi facing off against Rajasthan. Do join us for that. Hope you've enjoyed our coverage. We certainly did. Catch you tomorrow, until then have a great night of whatever is remaining. Alvida!
Ravindra Jadeja: 'Sir math bulayi ye, Jadeja hi bulayi ye (Don't call me sir, call me Jadeja please, when Harsha Bhogle asked him whether he would prefer being called 'sir' or 'Jadeja'). I didn't plan to hit my first ball for a six, just that the situation demanded it. It is nice if the wicket is turning, even I feel I'm more dangerous if I get turn.'
Ravindra Jadeja is the Man of the Match for his terrific spell where he took 4 wickets.
Mahendra Singh Dhoni: 'I think it is the demand of the game, we have to keep improvising. It is a constant process, the bowlers have their own plans and one has to formulate a plan to make runs. I'm glad I'm getting runs with that shot (referring to his powerful bottom-handed strokes). When it spins, Raina is useful, if it is a seaming wicket, we can bowl Dwayne Smith. Overall the squad looks balanced. No injuries too, only Ashish Nehra who is unfit. Hopefully he becomes fit soon.'
Gambhir: 'We are a talented side, but we haven't clicked. There have been times when the bowling has clicked, some times the batting has. But in a tournament, we need the side to perform as a unit. Maybe a rush of blood (talking about his run-out), can't say much more than that. Robin (Uthappa) looks settled at the top of the order and one positive of today was to see Yusuf striking the ball well. Those were the two positives and Sunil always does well. We won 7 in a row in 2012, hopefully we can replicate that.'
So Chennai win their fifth game in a row. They have been dominant in the field in the 2nd innings. Once Gambhir gifted his wicket away, the procession of wickets started. Jadeja took two in two off his first two deliveries and from then on it was just a matter of time before the inevitable happened. Uthappa and at the end Yusuf tried to produce a miracle, but it was never going to happen. In the end, Chennai run out comfortable winners.

1 run, no hat-trick. But Chennai win. The hat-trick delivery has been dabbed down to third man. A comprehensive win that for Chennai.

16.5Mohit Sharma to Yusuf PathanW
out Lbw!! Plumb! Full, fast and straight on the stumps, with a bit of tail, Pathan swings and mis
es, the ball strikes him right in front of all three. Hit the back leg so no doubts about that. Though Pathan wore a surprised look on his face after he saw the finger go up. On a hat-trick now. Y Pathan lbw b Mohit Sharma 41(29) [4s-1 6s-4]
3 wickets for Mohit Sharma. Mohit Sharma is on a roll.
Vinay Kumar, right handed bat, comes to the crease
