All over. Two emphatic points for KKR courtesy Andre Russell and his six-hitting frenzy!

70 runs off 31 balls with as many as eight sixes absolutely floors Punjab Kings who would've got their hopes up through the middle. This was just peak Russell carnage, typically ending the chase with two back-to-back sixes. Punjab were good in patches but were far worse at other times and rightfully finished second-best tonight. They have just a day's break before facing CSK, who are yet to open their account.

It's official. The Russell Wave is here!

And it's come against his fellow West Indian Odean Smith. Odean has repeatedly bowled in the slot to Russell and been met with the same violent treatment - move that front leg out of the way and smash the ball well over the stands. 30 runs from the Smith over and the equation is down to 29 off 48.

The Russell Show has begun?

He's put away two big sixes in an over from Harpreet Brar after defending away against Rahul Chahar.

This is....accurate?
