With the ball, Varun Chakravarthy was the standout performer, picking up two wickets. Overall, Kolkata’s performances this season have been nothing special so far.

Despite the early setback, Donovan Ferreira played a good knock of 69 runs in the middle order, while Ravindra Jadeja contributed a valuable 45.
