In Pics: Kolkata Knight Riders stumble in chase to hand Mumbai Indians first win

Kolkata Knight Riders looked all set to post their second successive win in IPL 2021 before imploding spectacularly against Mumbai Indians as they stumbled to a 10-run loss at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on Tuesday (April 13). Chasing a modest 153 to win, KKR were cruising with five overs remaining and Andre Russell as well as Dinesh Karthik still in the shed. But brilliant last overs by Jasprit Bumrah and Trent Boult ensured that the defending champions MI managed to pull off a sensational comeback win to post their first victory of this year's league.
