Kolkata Knight Riders exploited the sluggish Eden Gardens pitch perfectly to restrict Mumbai Indians to 147/8 in their must-win IPL 2026 clash on Wednesday. After opting to bowl under overcast skies, KKR struck early and reduced MI to 41/4 inside the powerplay.
Cameron Green (2/23) and Saurabh Dubey (2/34) led the charge. Green also produced a stunning running catch to dismiss Rohit Sharma, while Suryakumar Yadav's counterattack ended at 26.
After a rain break, Sunil Narine and Varun Chakravarthy tightened KKR's grip on the match. Narine was exceptional, returning figures of 1/13 with 16 dot balls and dismissing Hardik Pandya for 26. Tilak Varma struggled for his 20 off 32 balls as MI slumped to 106/7 in 17 overs. Corbin Bosch then provided late resistance with an unbeaten 32 off 18 balls to take Mumbai to 147/8.
