Knight Riders join Sunrisers at IPL summit
Russell's whirlwind 41, 36 of them coming in sixes, ensured KKR overcame a slow start to post a challenging 200 for nine after they were put in by Gambhir.
The left Hander hit sixes and fours in his explosive innings.
Just when the swashbuckling Aussie was finding some form, he threw his wicket away to a rank half-tracker from Kuldeep Yadav.
Having played back to back matches this season, the schedule for Rajasthan Royals has been very tight and Samson has stressed on recovering quickly after every game. The result was Delhi Daredevils getting all out in 14.2 overs scoring just 129 runs.
Russell and Nitish Rana (59 off 35) blazed a fifth-wicket stand of 61 in just 22 balls as Kolkata racked up 200-9, a total they defended easily after Roy, Shreyas Iyer (4) and former KKR captain Gambhir (8), who rejoined Delhi in January, fell within the first three overs of the run chase. I was waiting for them, both of who turn the ball into me.
If there was a musical concert, Russell would be your lead guitarist- a superstar with fancy hair and a jazzy attitude, who would plant a foot on the amplifier in front and pluck those strings to churn out the dominant tune, one that stays with you.
In the beginning, Kolkata openers Chris Lynn and Sunil Narine looked a bit rusty.
The Kolkata Knight Riders should bat Shubman Gill up the order as he may not be at his best when batting down the order at No. 6 or 7.

Demanding an answer from the Congress , Dr Patra said P Chidambaram must answer, as he signed in all the cases. "Look at the current prime minister...he looks to the past and spreads hatred".
This time around he will be wearing the blue and red jersey of Delhi and will face Dinesh Karthik and co, when these two teams collide in the much anticipated clash at Eden Gardens on Monday.
The Royals' last game was a serious contender for the match of the season and was a delight for the spectators to watch.
From there on, it was all downhill for Delhi as they lost wickets in a hurry.
The Rajasthan Royals after having been taken to the cleaners by the Sunrisers Hyderabad in their opening game have come back pretty well with back to back wins and will look to complete a hat-trick of victories against the Knights.
Rahul Tewatia and Trent Boult were the only two bright spots for Delhi's bowling line-up.
He eventually fell in the 18th over when he lost his leg stump to a dipping yorker from Boult (2-29).
The Rajasthan Royals vs Kings XI Punjab match will be aired on Star Sports Select 1/HD 1, Star Sports 1/HD 1 and live streaming will be available on Hotstar app and website.
