Last nights play-off game in the IPL turned out to be a lot closer than the Indians would have liked.The Kolkata Knight Riders posted a competetive 147 thanks to a superb innings of 70 from just 49 balls by Dutchman Ryan Ten Doeschate.
However one felt that this was always going to be a few runs short of the mark which in the end proved to be the case.
The Indians got off to a flying start thanks to a whirlwind 50 By Aussie opener Aiden Blizzard. They then had a bit of a middle order collapse until James Franklin and Indian Spin wizard Harbhajan Singh saw them across the line in the final over.
The next game for the Indians comes on Friday when the take on the Royal Challangers Bangalore with the victor taking on the Chennai Super Kings in Saturdays Final in Chennai.
