Commentary

That brings us to the end of our coverage for this encounter. Till the next time, this is myself (Arya Sekhar Chakraborty) signing off on behalf of my close matter and co-commentator Pradeep.

Kings won by 9 wickets (with 10 deliveres to spare)

Smashers 85/5 in 10 overs

Sivamurugan M 29(18) | Sivakuma S 25(22)
Desh Deepak Chauhan 3/11(2) | Aditya More 2/14(2)

That was an exceptional run chase from the Kings as they made light work of the victory target of 86 as they won the match by 9 wickets in the penultimate over. Aravind Akash and Sunil Bishnoi batted brilliantly and stitched together a 66-run opening stand to almost kill the game then and there.

Nadeem Khan then came with a clear intent and smashed a couple of sixes to seal the deal for the Kings. A comfortable victory by 9 wickets with 4 deliveries to spare.Bishnoi and Akash took their time initially but kept finding the boundaries whenever the ball was in their radar.

They kept nudging it around for singles and doubles and never really allowed the required rate to cree up. Rishi Raut bowled a superb over in the powerplay but it was the plan of the two openers to play out the potential threat. Sunil Bishnoi was eventually dismissed on 25 off 16 deliveries but by then the match was well within their grasp.

Akash struck a lusty blow down the ground and eventually it was Nadeem who finished the match off in style. Earlier in the day, it was a brilliant effort with the ball from the Kings which restricted the Smashers to a below-par score of 85. It was always going to be a substandard score and it turned out in that fashion.

8.2 Sudarshan Chauhan to Nadeem Khan, SIX! GAME, SET AND MATCH! Kings annihilate Smashers again and move up to the top of the table with this thumping win. Length delivery but wide of off-stump, Nadeem reaches as he sits on one knee and SMOKES it way over long-off to seal the game in style.

8.2 Sudarshan Chauhan to Nadeem Khan, WIDE! Loses his line this time, bowls it way outside the off-stump and called a wide.

8.1 Sudarshan Chauhan to Aravind Akash RS, floated a full delivery outside the off-stump, Aravind leans and pushes it through the covers for a single.

What a shot from Nadeem Khan to end the over. That was a dismissive shot from the big man as the Kings are just 5 runs away from the victory target.

7.6 Ganesan S to Nadeem Khan, SIX! BANG! Sensational shot from Nadeem that. Drifts the length delivery on the pads, Nadeem doesn't miss out as he dismisses that from his presence, sails over deep backward square-leg for a maximum.

7.5 Ganesan S to Aravind Akash RS, yorker length on the fifth stump, Aravind squeezes it to sweeper cover for another single.

7.4 Ganesan S to Aravind Akash RS, length delivery outside the off-stump, Aravind reaches to drive but gets the inside edge back on to the pad.

7.3 Ganesan S to Nadeem Khan, length delivery on the middle and leg, Nadeem absolutely whacked it down to long-on but gets just a single.

7.2 Ganesan S to Aravind Akash RS, full delivery, wide of off-stump. Aravind drills it straight to deep covers for a single.

7.1 Ganesan S to Aravind Akash RS, SIX! BAM! Back of a length on the middle and leg. Aravind gets inside the line and just helps it down to fine-leg, that goes all the way over the fine-leg fence for a maximum.

Nadeem Khan, RHB is the new man in.

Just when it looked that Sunil Bishnoi would take his side over the finish line with some lusty blows, he plays a wild shot and has to depart. A crucial knock nonetheless as the Kings are nearing the victory target here. 19 more required in the last 3 overs.

6.6 Sudarshan Chauhan to Sunil Bishnoi, OUT! UP IN THE AIR AND TAKEN! That is the end of the opening stand but the job is done one thinks. Length delivery on the fifth stump, Bishnoi reaches to hoick but has skied it and the backward point fielder takes a sitter.

6.3 Sudarshan Chauhan to Aravind Akash RS, SIX MORE! Kings are cruising now and this game is going away from Smashers. Length delivery on the stumps, Aravind sits on one knee and CLOBBERS it way over deep square-leg fence for a huge maximum.
