Kolkata, May 9 (IBNS): Decimating the Kolkata Knight Riders bowling unit, Ishan Kishan powered Mumbai Indians to score 210/6 in 20 overs in the 11th edition of Indian Premier League (IPL) at the Eden Gardens here on Wednesday.

Coming out to bat at a critical moment, when Mumbai was looking nervous at 62/2 in nine overs, Ishan took the match completely away from Kolkata by displaying a 21-ball 62 runs knock, which was composed of five fours and six sixes.

Ishan partnered his skipper Rohit Sharma to construct a 82-run stand for the third wicket.

Though Rohit (36 off 31) was tame throughout the innings, Ishan was on the top gear to smash four sixes in the 14th over to reach his 50 in just 17 deliveries.

Though KKR’s best bowler Narine (1/27) was also picked out of the park by Ishan in the 15th over, it was the Windies spinner who dismissed the left-handed batsman.

After controlling the match in the first ten overs, the KKR bowlers gave away 138 runs in the next ten.

Piyush Chawla (3/48), who helped KKR to clinch the first two wickets of the match, finished the innings by conceding 22 runs in the 20th over.
