Goal was to get him out (Russell). Had a chat with Rahul, and the talk was that if I get hit for six off a hard length ball, I'll still back it. Have seen him get out to that length. He's one player who can single-handedly win the game. My dad always motivates me, even the coaches here, and Gautam and Rahul. The role is to take wickets and win games. In the last four matches, we've bowled second, so we have an idea of the pitch. Man-of-the-Match: LSG pacer Avesh Khan (3-1-19-3)

Kolkata have been bundled out for 101 runs and Lucknow have sent a warning to all the other sides with this statement win. They have ousted their opponents in the field and it is a huge victory that takes Lucknow onto the top of the points table. This also means that five-times champions, Mumbai are mathematically out of the race for the playoffs.
