A upset and  miffed Kolkata Knight Riders captain Gautam Gambhir described his side's 10-run loss to Rajasthan Royals in their IPL match as something which he has never seen on a cricket field.

Chasing a victory target of 171, KKR were sailing along at 121 for no loss with Gambhir (54) and Robin Uthappa (65) cruising before losing an incredible six wickets for the addition of just two runs in a space of nine deliveries, which led to the disappointing loss.
