Kolkata, Apr 14 (IBNS): With superb fielding and bowling performances, Sunrisers Hyderabad restricted Kolkata Knight Riders to just 138/8 in 20 overs in the 11th edition of Indian Premier League at the Eden Gardens here Saturday.
Losing the toss and coming out to bat, KKR struggled in the middle overs by losing wickets at regular intervals, without any major match-turning partnership.
It was only Chris Lynn's 47 runs and skipper Dinesh Karthik’s 29 runs knock in the later part of the innings enabled the two-time title winners from registering a humiliating total.
Bhuvneshwar Kumar had the best bowling figure for SRH with 3/26 in his four overs.
