KKR Vs MI Live Score: Adios, Good night!

Well, so that's all from our side and it was really entertaining to share the live updates with you guys! I enjoyed a lot and I hope you also did. 

This is time for a good bye but don't worry, we will be back for another live blog. Till then, Good bye, take care!


0:55 (IST) May 12

KKR Vs MI Live Score: Player of the match - Varun Chakravarthy

Ace KKR spinner gets the prestigious of the match award for his game changing spell. He came into the attack when MI had got a blistering start, but swung the game in KKR's favour with his exceptional bowling. 


0:42 (IST) May 12

KKR Vs MI Live Score: Match summary

The match was cut-short to 16-overs a side due to an incessant downpour earlier in the day. 

Despite starting poorly, KKR recovered well to post a respectable 157-run total on the board, with Venkatesh Iyer, Nitish Rana, Andre Russell and Rinku Singh playing crucial knocks.

In response, MI had a blistering start, thanks to Ishan Kishan's fireworks at the top. But they lost the plot as soon as KKR's spinners were introduced, losing wickets at regular intervals. 

As a result, they finished their innings with 139 runs on the board, incurring their ninth defeat this season. 


0:32 (IST) May 12

KKR Vs MI Live Score: Harshit reigns supreme as KKR crush MI

What an incredible final over from Harshit Rana! 

When Naman Dhir finished the 15th on a high and Iyer gave the ball to Rana, the game was certainly well-poised for a fitting finish. 

But his excellent final over seals the deal for the hosts as they win it by 18 runs. 


0:29 (IST) May 12

KKR Vs MI Live Score: One brings two, Tilak goes back to the hut

Youngster Tilak Varma plays a quick-fire cameo before Harshit Rana makes him his second victim. 

This is some comeback from Rana. Iyer trusted him over Starc to bowl the final over and he has been absolutely sensational. He loves bowling the last over, doesn't he?


0:25 (IST) May 12

KKR Vs MI Live Score: Naman's brisk cameo keeps MI alive

Two sixes and a boundary from Naman Dhir to bring some smiles back to the MI camp. Russell concedes 19 off his final over, but the job is still not done for MI as they need 22 off the final over. 

Well, well! Rana ji brings KKR back into the contest by getting Naman off his first ball. 21 off four deliveries, it's surely KKR's game to lose now.


0:19 (IST) May 12

KKR Vs MI Live Score: Tilak hammers Harshit for 4, 6, 4

Some late acceleration from Tilak Varma as he tonks Harshit Rana for two fours and a six. 

But simultaneously, MI lose their last recognised batter Nehal Wadhera, courtesy of a run out. 41 needed in final 2 overs and I really think it's over for Mumbai!


0:10 (IST) May 12

KKR Vs MI Live Score: David follows Pandya, MI sink further

Russell comes for his second over and strikes instantly! It's time for Tim David to make his way back to the dugout. 

Familiar story for MI fans! Ishan comes and plays a brisk cameo, Rohit plays another horrible knock (for the nth time), Pandya fails yet again and SKY finding his stars 'not aligned'. 

Overall, MI's disastrous performance becomes the talk of the town once again.  


0:06 (IST) May 12

KKR Vs MI Live Score: Pandya's horrible run continues!

Shreyas Iyer's decision to give Varun Chakravarthy his final over pays rich dividends for KKR as he gets rid of MI skipper Hardik Pandya. 

Well, Pandya has done nothing significant as a batter this season and he sustains his lean patch. 

KKR are all over MI at Eden Gardens! Meanwhile, Varun finishes his spell with remarkable figures of 2/18 in four overs. Take a bow, man!


23:59 (IST) May 11

KKR Vs MI Live Score: Russell, you beauty!!

Andre Russell gets the huge wicket of Suryakumar Yadav! Dare I say it's all over for MI? 

Surya tries to play an audacious shot to break the shackles but only manages to find Ramandeep Singh's safe hands at the deep square leg. 



23:54 (IST) May 11

KKR Vs MI Live Score: KKR spinners weave their magic

As expected, KKR's lethal spin duo of Sunil Narine and Varun Chakravarthy has weaved the magic for the home team. 

MI, who cruised to 62 in just six overs, have managed just 19 runs off the next four. With the asking rate reading 12.83, it's high time the MI batters start accelerating. 


23:46 (IST) May 11

KKR Vs MI Live Score: Rohit records another failure, Varun strikes!

What a poor knock from Rohit Sharma!! During a 158-run chase off 16 overs, Rohit manages only 19 before Varun Chakravarthy gets the breakthrough. 

More importantly, he played 24 balls, geez, that's literally four overs, Rohit! 



23:41 (IST) May 11

KKR Vs MI Live Score: Narine draws first blood for KKR, Ishan departs

In the airrrr and taken!!! As always, Sunil Narine has once again emerged as KKR's wrecker-in-chief. 

It's the big wicket of Ishan Kishan, who was looking rock solid in the middle. Huge breakthrough for the Knight Riders. In comes MI's go-to man, Suryakumar Yadav!


23:38 (IST) May 11

KKR Vs MI Live Score: MI cruise to 62 in powerplay

Riding on Ishan Kishan's fireworks, MI have got off to a flyer, scoring 62 runs off the first six overs. 

They needed a start like this to chase the total and now as they have got it, we guess these are worrying signs for the hosts. 


23:31 (IST) May 11

KKR Vs MI Live Score: Ishan makes Narine his victim

Ishan is on a roll and this time he makes KKR's trump card Sunil Narine the victim of his flamboyance! 

A four followed by a six helps MI breach the 50-run mark in no time. Ishan seems to be on a mission here.


23:26 (IST) May 11

KKR Vs MI Live Score:  4, 4, 6! Ishan schools Harshit

Harshit Rana's over adds salt to KKR's injury as Ishan Kishan smacks him for two fours and a six to collect 15 off his opening over. Rana ji is having a tough start with the ball. 


23:16 (IST) May 11

KKR Vs MI Live Score: Wayward Vaibhav helps MI get into the groove

After conceding a no ball boundary, Vaibhav bowls a wide followed by a high full toss, which Rohit dispatches disdainfully into the stands! 

Vaibhav's hard work in the first over certainly goes in vain as MI have got the desired start. 


23:12 (IST) May 11

KKR Vs MI Live Score: Starc bowls an expensive over

After Vaibhav bowls an impressive over, Mitchell Starc eases the pressure off MI by conceding 11 runs, including two boundaries of his first over. 

Two poor deliveries dispatched effectively into the fence by the MI openers! 


23:09 (IST) May 11

KKR Vs MI Live Score: Vaibhav keeps MI openers quiet

KKR's opening bowler Vaibhav Arora was accurate in his first over as MI openers Rohit and Ishan negotiated him cautiously. However, as Mitchell Starc comes into the attack, Rohit greets him with a classy boundary. 


23:02 (IST) May 11

KKR Vs MI Live Score:  It's time for the chase

Welcome back folks! Despite getting a delayed start, this game has been intriguing enough to captivate the fans. 158 runs to get off 96 balls, here comes Rohit Sharma accompanied by Ishan Kishan. 

But we all know who is gonna be the dangerman for KKR. Yes, you guessed it right, the focus will be certainly on SKY. Well, Vaibhav Arora to start the proceedings for KKR!


22:57 (IST) May 11

KKR Vs MI Live Score: Innings Summary!

It was uncharacteristic innings from KKR, who lost their both in-form openers Phil Salt and Sunil Narine inside seven balls. Venkatesh Iyer, who loves to play against Mumbai, then took the charge, while Rinku Singh, Andre Russell, and Ramandeep Singh gave the finishing touches.


Yet, it was not a winning team total by KKR. If they want to secure the Q before their name, their bowlers must step up in a spirited way.


This was all from my end. My colleague Debashis Sarangi will take you through from here on. Stay tuned for the second innings.



22:49 (IST) May 11

KKR Vs MI Live Score: Rinku Falls To Bumrah!

No Rinku Singh special. Jasprit Bumrah gets the softest dismissal of the night.


Starc comes in at No. 9. He gets a single straightaway. 150 up for KKR.


6 to finish. This is Ramandeep, the finisher, for you. Bumrah, who did so well, was punished for a six. KKR close on 157/7.



22:46 (IST) May 11

KKR Vs MI Live Score: 11 Runs Off 15th Over!


MI are happy with this score in the penultimate over. They would say Thushara has done his job. All depends on Rinku and Ramandeep for the final flourish in the last six balls.


22:41 (IST) May 11

KKR Vs MI Live Score: Rinku Holds The Key!

Kolkata have reached 136/6 in 14 overs. They need to score big in this final two overs. Ramandeep Singh and Rinku Singh are at the crease. They can deliver! Let's see!




22:35 (IST) May 11

KKR Vs MI Live Score: Chawla's Experience Shocks Russell!

An 117 kph seam-up bouncer, bowled by experienced Piyush Chawla, was too tough to pull for Russell. The big man falls after a 14-ball 24. Huge wicket for MI.


22:29 (IST) May 11

KKR Vs MI Live Score: Need Quick Finish? Call Rinku!

The star finishing duo -- Rinku and Russell -- are in the middle. The Southpaw gets off the mark with a six. He takes only two balls to open the account.



22:26 (IST) May 11

KKR Vs MI Live Score: Rana Departs! Oh, Wait!

Nitish Rana gets trapped by Bumrah, and the umpire raises his finger. Rana was about to leave, but Russell told him to take the review.


And he was run out later in the over just after his LBW decision got overturned. Such an eventful over.



22:23 (IST) May 11

21:47 (IST) May 11

KKR Vs MI Live Score: Nitish Rana Gets Off The Mark!


Nitish, who was KKR's skipper in IPL 2023, got off the mark with a brilliant boundary after two dots. The run rate is now gone down to nine runs an over. This is a 16-over game, they have to shift gears quickly.


21:43 (IST) May 11

21:21 (IST) May 11

KKR Vs MI Live Score: Salt Starts With A Bang! Then Falls!

21:16 (IST) May 11

KKR Vs MI Live Score: Fantasy Tips, Peeps!

And here comes the part you guys are waiting for, analysed by none other than our expert Probuddha Bhattacharjee.


Kolkata Knight Riders Heavy Fantasy XI

Sunil Narine, the undisputed MVP of KKR, has been a game-changer with his versatile performance. His prowess with both the bat and the ball makes him an invaluable asset. For a fantasy XI heavily leaning towards KKR, Sunil Narine is a non-negotiable pick. 


Phil Salt has been brilliant with the bat for the Knights at the top order, showing great potential for your fantasy XI. In a team with more KKR players, Salt will be a good choice, adding to the optimism of your team's performance. 


Shreyas Iyer can also be a good choice for the fantasy contests of the match, further boosting your team's chances. 


Among the KKR bowlers, Varun Chakravarthy and Harshit Rana have done well. These two bowlers would be safe choices from the KKR bowling. 

Mumbai Indians Heavy Fantasy XI


Tilak Varma has been the most consistent batter for the Mumbai Indians in IPL 2024. Barring a few matches, Varma has scored runs in most of the games. He will be one of the safer choices for the fantasy contests of the game. Suryakumar Yadav has picked up form with incredible knocks in the last two matches. He, too, would be a safe pick for the game. 


Among the MI bowlers, Jasprit Bumrah is a must-pick, as he is one of the most successful bowlers in the tournament. Piyush Chawla could be a decisive choice, as he picked up form with the ball in the last game and knows the wicket from his time with the KKR franchise.


18:14 (IST) May 11

KKR Vs MI Live Score: Match Preview!

Before you go back and panic for the overseas conditions, here's our match preview, written by Debashis Sarangi.


Kolkata

Led by Shreyas Iyer, Kolkata Knight Riders have had an inspirational journey in the IPL 2024. Gautam Gambhir's comeback as the team mentor has worked wonders for KKR as they occupy the top spot in the standings with eight victories in eleven matches. 


Openers Phil Salt and Sunil Narine have come out with all guns blazing, tormenting ruthless bowling attacks inside the powerplay. 


Even when they have failed to capitalise on the field restrictions, Shreyas Iyer, Angkrish Raghuvanshi and Andre Russell have stepped up for the team's success. 


On the bowling front, KKR have hunted as a unit, with most of their bowlers having more than ten scalps under their belt. 


So, barring Rinku Singh's rough patch, nothing seems really worrisome for KKR as they inch closer towards the IPL playoffs.


Mumbai

On the other hand, Mumbai Indians have had a forgettable IPL 2024 campaign under Hardik Pandya's leadership. Their lacklustre performance is well-reflected in their position in the points table, where they reel at eighth with four wins in twelve matches. 


While MI openers Ishan Kishan and Rohit Sharma have failed to give them solid starts, Suryakumar Yadav has been their lone-warrior, getting ample support from Tilak Varma. 


Finisher Tim David has shown glimpses of his big-hitting ability, but he is yet to work a lot to win matches on his own. 


On the bowling front, Jasprit Bumrah has been head and shoulders above his colleagues, who haven't really lived up to the potential. So, as they are already out of the playoffs race, MI would play for their pride with a nothing to lose attitude.


18:10 (IST) May 11

KKR Vs MI Live Score: Oopsy!

Well well well! Not a good sign for fans, we must say.




18:04 (IST) May 11

KKR Vs MI Live Score: Weather Gods, What's Say?

As of now, there is no threat of rain to play spoilsport in this anticipated contest. The weather was not-so-nice during the last seven days or so, and there were good chances to ruin this one as well.


However, as of now, there is only cloud cover over Eden Gardens, although thunderstorms are predicted during the match.


17:57 (IST) May 11

KKR Vs MI Live Score: Good Evening, Guys!

Hello and welcome to OneCricket's Live Blog for Match 60 of IPL 2024 between Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and Mumbai Indians (MI), scheduled to take place at Eden Gardens, Kolkata.
