In the Monday night special, Kolkata Knight Riders kept themselves alive in the race to playoffs after a big win against Mumbai Indians in match 56 of the IPL 2022. The Knight Riders were restricted to 165/9 in the first inning after Jasprit Bumrah registered not only his best figures in IPL but also of the tournament - 5/10 in four overs. However, Bumrah's masterclass went in vain as MI got bowled out for 113 while chasing the target. Pat Cummins picked three wickets (all in one over) as KKR won the match by 52 runs.
