6pm That will be all from us for this game. There is more ILT20 action lined up today with MI Emirates taking on Gulf Giants in about half an hour from now. From Shashwat, Ranjith and Vairavan, this is goodbye!
Andries Gous is the Player of the Match for his 50-ball 95!
5:45pm A clinical Knight Riders run-chase, and this should set them up nicely for the ILT20. Gous' knock was the highlight, with the opener finishing on 95 off 50, smashing the ball to all parts during his innings. Pepper played his part too, as did Evans, and this has given the Knight Riders a solid blueprint, at least when batting second.
Nothing to shout about from a Vipers perspective. They could not make early inroads and were always playing catch-up. Hasaranga did not have a great day with the ball either, and that complicated matters in the middle overs. Lawrence and Mills were the only bright spots in what was otherwise a dull bowling display.
Imad Wasim joins Gous. The Vipers need just three more
