Strategic Break! Well then, Kolkata have come out all guns blazing and are inching towards the title in some fashion. Sunil Narine fell early and there have been a few edges that have gone to the fence but Venkatesh Iyer has come out and played like there's no tomorrow. Given the current circumstances, the game could be over in the next five overs or so. Fasten your seat belts and let's get back to the action.

Right then, yet another season of the highly-touted Indian T20 League has come to an end and what a cricketing extravaganza it was! This season saw some unreal batting performances with the 250-run barrier being crossed on multiple occasions but towards the end of the tournament, we saw the pitches even out and a fantastic contest between bat and ball. Eventually, it was Kolkata who played some scintillating cricket throughout the tournament and went on to lift their third title in a memorable campaign. This also marks the end of the road for our coverage and we hope you guys enjoyed the season as much as we did. However, the cricketing action doesn't stop here as the showdown event of the year, the Men's T20 World Cup is around the corner. You can switch tabs and check the fixtures section for the latest matches. Till then, take care and goodbye!
