Lucknow Super Giants: Nicholas Pooran stood up yet again with a late batting burst to top-score with 45 and guide Lucknow Super Giants to a respectable 161/7 against Kolkata Knight Riders at the Eden Gardens on Sunday.

It was an innings from LSG where they stumbled a lot on a two-paced pitch and never gave the feeling of momentum being firmly in their hands. It took Pooran’s 45 off 32 balls, laced with two fours and four sixes, to take LSG past 160. After making 21 runs in his first 21 balls, Pooran collected 24 runs off his next 11 balls to lend some respectability to the visitors’ total.

For KKR, Mitchell Starc was the pick of the bowlers by picking up 3/28, while an impressive Sunil Narine, Vaibhav Arora, Varun Chakravarthy and Andre Russell also bagged a wicket each in a pleasing bowling performance from the hosts’, who are aiming to beat LSG for the first time in IPL.
