It was lovely to bring you updates from this match. I, Arjun Bhalla along with my co-commentator Akshay Bhide sign off for now. Do join us tomorrow as Delhi Capitals will be taking up Sunrisers Hyderbad in Dubai. Till then, Good Night folks.
The tournament is getting exciting day after day. Let's see what happens tomorrow in the game between Delhi Capitals and Sunrisers. If Delhi wins, they will become the first team of the season to qualify for the playoffs.
As we all the table opened for all the sides to make it to the playoffs. With RR winning Mumbai, CSK's chances were shattered. Now, KXIP is on a roll. They have won all the last 5 matches, they have played. They have knocked off Bangalore, Mumbai, Delhi, then Hyderabad, and now Kolkata. With the momentum of their side, it seems that the side whom every expect, every cricketing pundit wrote off are the top contenders for the playoff with the Big three of the IPL2020.
Chris Gayle | Player of the Match: I have been doing some off-field training with the trainer when I wasn't playing. You have to have the good feeling. We are happy now, still a long way to go. It was important to assess the conditions as quickly as possible. Two very good spinners, it was important to adjust quickly. Once you get the first boundary going, I was always going to get into the zone. I eased a bit of pressure off Mandeep bit, he batted really well and it was a great partnership. Sunil has got me out so many teams. You got to make best use of it because the wicket wasn't suiting for him. The last game, we told we wanted to won it for him (Mandeep). Really happy for him. We needed some sort of momentum to get that willl power. We need senior players to step up. glad that me and Madeep put our hands up.

KL Rahul, winning captain: I am very happy. The whole team will be. we collectively decided to go out there and play positive cricket, and things can turn around. It is different persons putting their hand up at different times. Just happy that everything is coming together. Fingers crossed that we can win a few more games. The kind of toughness Mandeep has shown has rubbed on to other ways. Everybody is emotional. Just to put his hand up, just to be there, just to finish off the game, makes us so proud. When we have Anil Kumble as coach, it is no surprise we are playing two legspinners. He always had that in mind. He has worked really really hard on them. And not just on them, but also those who haven't played yet. Complete team effort, and a lot of credit should go to the coaches. Chris, it was a very hard decision not to play him, He is the hungriest I have seen in the last seven-eight years playing for different franchises. Running ones and twos. And you know how he keeps the dressing room upbeat. To do it over and over again, year after year... We will enjoy tonight's victory, enjoy tomorrow, and then start thinking about the next game. One game at a time, keep the confidence going and keep the energy going.
