    "editor1": "<p><strong>Kolkata, May 9 (CRICKETNMORE) -<\/strong> Young wicketkeeper-batsman Ishan Kishan blasted a 21-ball 62 to help Mumbai Indians post 210\/6 against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in an Indian Premier League (IPL) game at the Eden Gardens here on Wednesday.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The Jharkhand left-hander&#39;s pyrotechnics between the 10th and 15th over propelled MI from 62\/2 in nine overs to 145\/3 after 15 overs.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Ishan, whose innings was laced with five fours and six sixes, brought up his fifty in 17 balls, the joint second-fastest to reach the milestone with Sunil Narine who also completed his half century in 17 balls against Royal Challengers Bangalore here. Lokesh Rahul had smashed a 14-ball 50 this season, IPL&#39;s fastest.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Ishan and skipper Rohit Sharma (36; 31b; 2x4, 1x6) joined hands for a 82-run partnership for the third wicket off just 34 balls. Rohit was dropped by Nitish Rana on 10, when the team was on 90\/2.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>In the end, Ben Cutting&#39;s 9-ball 24 took MI past 200 as the last over went for 24 runs off Piyush Chawla (3\/48).<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Openers Evin Lewis and Suryakumar Yadav gave MI a decent start. Lewis was dropped by Kuldeep Yadav (3\/43) running backwards from square leg off Prasidh Krishna (1\/41) when he was batting on 16.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>But the 26-year-old Trinidadian could not make the most of the reprieve, getting out in strange fashion trying to pull a loose Chawla delivery with the ball ballooning off the back of his bat to short third man where Chris Lynn took an easy catch.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Lewis and Suryakumar stitched together a 46-run stand for the opening wicket as Mumbai Indians were 47\/1 at the end of Powerplay.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Former KKR player Suryakumar who has been MI&#39;s batting mainstay this season, then threw away a strong start, pulling a Chawla half tracker to Rinku Singh at deep midwicket.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>At the halfway stage, Mumbai were 72\/2 with Ishan joining Rohit in the middle.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Ishan was at it from the word go, taking Chawla for 14 runs in the 11th over and then turning the tide in the visitors&#39; favour by hitting four back-to-back sixes off Kuldeep in the 14th over. As many as 25 runs were leaked in Kuldeep&#39;s third over as Mumbai looked good for a 200-plus score.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Karthik brought back Narine to check the flow of runs and the move worked. Ishan tried to clear the deep square leg boundary just after hitting a six but picked out Robin Uthappa.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Hardik Pandya (19; 13b; 2x6) and Rohit departed in quick succession with the latter giving Prasidh Krishna his first IPL wicket.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Brief scores: Mumbai Indians 210\/6 in 20 overs (Ishan Kishan 62, Rohit Sharma 36, Suryakumar Yadav 36; Piyush Chawla 3\/48, Sunil Narine 1\/27) vs Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR).<\/p>\r\n",
