Opener Chris Lynn anchored his innings to perfection as Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) were back to winning ways with a comfortable six-wicket win against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in an IPL encounter last night. Chasing a competitive target of 176, KKR reached the target in 19.1 overs with Lynn scoring an unbeaten 62 off 52 balls with seven fours and a six. KKR captain Dinesh Karthik relishing his new found role as a finisher, played his part with a 10-ball-23 to make it easy in the end. KKR with eight points remained in fourth place while Virat Kohli’s men slumped further with their fifth defeat in seven games. Chris Lynn was chosen as the 'Player of the Match.'
