IPL Game 16 - Kolkata Knight Riders vs Mumbai Indians at Eden Gardens, Kolkata

Game 16 is well underway with Kolkata hosting Mumbai at Eden Gardens.

Kolkata batted first after winning the toss and were restricted to 8/137 from their 20 overs. Laxmi Shukla played a lone hand, dragging the Knight Riders to a respectable total, his 40 not out got them out of a bad situation. Debabrata Das was the only other mjaor contributor with 29.

For the Mumbai bowlers, Sanath Jayasuriya was the standout with 3/14 which included a maiden. Shaun Pollock took 2/27 with Dwayne Bravo and Dilhara Fernando getting the other wickets. Jayasuriya was also reponsible for the run out of Ricky Ponting for 19.

In reply, Mumbai are 0/16 from two overs. Jayasuriya in typical form already, 10 runs on the board and yep you guessed it, one four and one six.

Agarkar gets Rahane who plays a tame chip to Michael Hussey at midwicket.

1/16 in the 3rd over. There's a bit of life in the pitch for the bowlers so 137 might still be a pretty competitive total.

Ishant Sharma gets the big wicket on Jayasuriya who plays on for 18.

2/25 after four overs, Robin Uthappa is in now.
