India, April 27 -- Lucknow Super Giants were all but out of the contest, entering the final five overs needing 64 runs. Kolkata Knight Riders seemed to pull away when Anukul Roy removed Mukul Choudhary, leaving the hosts at 93 for five. But Ayush Badoni wasn't ready to give up. He struck a four off the spinner and a six off Kartik Tyagi before Varun Chakaravarthy dismissed him.

Just when KKR looked set to close out the match, George Linde hit Varun for two boundaries, reducing the equation to 28 off 12. The see-saw continued as Vaibhav Arora removed the South African, but Mohammed Shami and Himmat Singh struck two boundaries in the penultimate over to bring it down to 17 required off the final over.
