SIX! Shakib Al Hasan to Shubman Gill. Arm ball full toss, outside off stump down the track driving, well timed in the air under control over long on for 6 runs. Shubman Gill wins it in style. He has watched Andre Russell smash them at the other end and decides he wants a part of the action. Two sixes in the final over to clinch victory for KKR by six wickets. A fantastic chase which was set up by Nitish Rana before the exploits of both Gill and Russell at the end. Sunrisers will feel they have let one slip after they were in a strong position to win the game.
