In the final delivery of the third over, Tripathi cut Boult's short pitch delivery, but Suryakumar at backward point with very little time to react took a sensational catch. And as the cherry on top of it, the dismissal meant Boult got his 50th wicket in the IPL.
Pat Cummins (53 not out) and newly appointed Kolkata Knight Riders captain Eoin Morgan (39 not out) dragged the team to 148/5 after a clinical Mumbai Indians (MI) dismantled the top half of the KKR batting lineup within the first 11 overs for just 61 at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium on Friday.
MI pacers Trent Boult (1/32), Jasprit Bumrah (1/22) and Nathan Coulter-Nile (1/51) all took a wicket each while spinner Rahul Chahar (2/18) took two wickets off consecutive balls in the eighth over.
