Commentary
Lucknow Super Giants handed Kolkata Knight Riders a crushing 75-run defeat at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune on Saturday.
While the win saw Lucknow strengthen their hold on a playoff spot with their eight win of the season, Kolkata's chances of making it to the playoffs weakened further, as they fell to their seventh loss of the season.
After being sent into bat, Lucknow rode on a strong second wicket partnership, between Quinton de Kock and Deepak Hooda to set up a big target. Hooda and de Kock guided LSG to their highest powerplay score - 66/1 - this season.
Though the runrate dipped after the duo departed, Shivam Mavi was hammered by Marcus Stoinis and Jason Holder in the 19th over for 30 runs as they crossed to 150+ mark and set up a strong total of 176/7.
In reply, KKR struggled from the very onset. Mohsin Khan handed LSG the perfect start, bowling a wicket maiden.
Kolkata struggled to put runs on the board as they were reduced to 25/4 in 6.5 overs. The only respite for the Knight Riders was the smashing 19-ball 45 run knock from Andre Russell. But once Russell departed, Knights crumbled as they folded for 101 in 14.3 overs.
The win saw newcomers Super Giants climb to the top of the points table, while former champions Knights languished at the eighth spot.

With eight points (four wins) in 10 games, Shreyas Iyer-led KKR are placed at the eighth spot while KL Rahul's LSG are perched at second position with 14 points (seven wins in 10 games).
KKR would be looking to continue the confidence they got in the previous game and win matches on the bounce to give them an outside chance of making it to the select four.
LSG, on the other hand, will be certain of playoff qualification if they win this one and get to the magical figure of 16 points.
