KKR break away from the cluster of teams with eight points. It was not the most attractive chase, but on a surface that was slow, they needed to grind it out. They got another strong start from their openers and then Robin Uthappa took it deep with yet another half-century. Mumbai Indians looked lacklustre without the runs on the board and their campaign has almost come to a close. Thanks for the comments and feedback. Till tomorrow, ciao ciao.

"This shows the character of the team, the guys were really pumped up to get the campaign back on track," Gambhir says. "Winning the toss, the bowlers did great to restrict the team to 140. He [Narine] is a mystery bowler and we are lucky to have a bowler like that in our team. "

"Yesterday I got hit by Cummins on my toe, so i would like to thank my staff for getting me back to play today," says Robin Uthappa. "I have been working hard, i have been improving my skill too. I am trying to play in the V, i am playing with the correct technique too. It's a result of spending a lot of hours practicing."

"The wicket was doing a little bit, it was not an easy pitch to bat," Rohit Sharma says. "But we were 20 runs short, it was not easy to defend 140 on this ground. You have to consistently keep scoring 170+ to win games. We have been bowling well, but we haven't been consistent in our bowling. We have Josh Hazlewood, Marchant de Lange, Krishmar Santokie (as replacements for Malinga)"

"It looks easy from outside but only the one in the middle knows how difficult it is in the middle," says Yusuf Pathan. "Our bowlers bowled very well, then we started really well. Robin's form is a good sign for our team - he is playng well, he is playing long. Our bench strength is also strong, that helps us to choose the right players for the right conditions. "

Srinivas Goud: "Thats luck favoring the hard work. KKR wins with their hardwork & their key competitor SRH goes down on the sameday! "

Dev: "Funnily enough, of the 4 games left to play, KKR and SRH (the 2 contenders for the 4th slot) play each other twice. Those will be the eliminators for the eliminator. Lots can change."

Farhan Siddique: "Overall its a day for Wicket Keepers Naman Ojha, Saha and Uthappa."
