AS IT HAPPENEDKolkata Knight Riders skipper Shreyas Iyer definitely falls in that watchlist and the Mumbai player displayed his game-reading quality well in his side's six-wicket victory against Punjab Kings at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on Friday. Shreyas won the important toss and put the rivals in, keeping the dew factor later on in mind. He got good support from KKR's two old warhorses - Umesh Yadav with the ball and Andre Russell (70 off 31; 2x4, 8x6) with the bat, who brought the side back to winning ways with 33 balls to spare.
Umesh Yadav continued his dream run with a four-wicket haul before Andre Russell returned to his brutal best to fire Kolkata Knight Riders to an easy six-wicket win over Punjab Kings here on Friday.

No wonder skipper Shreyas Iyer was all praise for his team. “I am really proud of the way we played this game and took it till the last over,” he said.
