Kolkata Knight Riders are hosting defending champions Gujarat Titans in match number 39 of the ongoing Indian Premier League. After winning the toss earlier, Hardik Pandya-led Gujarat Titans invited KKR to bat first. Although the match had a delayed start with rain coming in play, Indian pacer Mohammed Shami drew the first blood in N Jagadeesan.

The 32-year-old continued to wreak havoc to the KKR batting lineup as he then went on to dismiss Shardul Thakur. On the last delivery of his second over, injured Mohit Sharma judged the ball to perfection as he ran backwards to complete the catch. Sharma went full stretched to take a stunner and dismissed Thakur at the score of duck.
