Hyderabad: Scoreboard after Kolkata Knight Riders defeated Perth Scorchers by 3 wickets in the tenth match of 2014 CLT20 played at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Uppal, Hyderabad on Wednesday.
KKR had an inauspicious start after skipper Gautam Gambhir (2) was caught at point off Joel Paris (1-19) in the second over and soon Jason Behrendorff (1-28) got Jacques Kallis to flick one straight into the hands of Craig Simmons at short fine leg.
Robin Uthappa (23) did try to hang around but was caught behind after trying to chase a rising delivery off Nathan Coulter-Nile (2-41).
Manish Pandey (24) also tried to give some stability to the innings but fell to a perfect Coulter-Nile yorker in the 11th over.
Dutch star Ryan ten Doeschate, who had a big role to play in the opening win against Chenni Super Kings, couldn't last long either as he fell to Yasir Arafat (3-39) and put KKR in a bit of trouble at 87 for five.
Yusuf, who injured his foot in the 17th over, carried on with some strapping but was holed out at deep mid-wicket as Arafat picked up his second scalp.
But Suryakumar, whose 19-ball knock was laced by a four and 4 sixes, ensured that KKR register their third successive win in the tournament so far even after Andre Russell (4) was cleaned by Arafat on the first ball of the last over.
