Chennai complete a comfortable 55-run victory over Kolkata at the Eden Gardens. It comes as the first win for the visitors in the tournament this season while first loss for the home side.
That target of 165 proved quite big for the in-form Kolkata side as they were bowled out for 109 in 19.2 overs. Kolkata batting failed miserably against a good looking Chennai attack who kept on striking at regular intervals. Saha (22) ended up being the top scorer while Karthik (21) the second best. Shukla (19) and Ganguly (11) got the starts while the rest struggled to reach even double figures.
Kemp (3/12) and Balaji (2/9) bowled really well for Chennai getting some good support from almost each of their bowlers. MS Dhoni is awarded the Man of the Match for his brilliant knock in the first innings.
