IPL: Kolkata-Deccan match abandoned due to rain

KOLKATA: The second match to be played between Kolkata Knight Riders and Deccan Chargers here at the Eden Gardens was abandoned without a ball being bowled due to rain on Tuesday.

Both teams were awarded one point each after the umpires called off the match.

In the wake of this decision, Deccan Chargers who never won any match after six matches in the tournament are not pointless anymore.

Kolkata Knight Riders are second in the league with nine points behind Delhi Daredevils who are on top of the table with ten points.
