KKR Vs MI Vivo IPL 10 59th Match (Qualifier 2) Live Score Highlights Result 19th May 2017

The two of the past IPL champions; KKR and MI, having won the tournaments twice in the history of IP, will fight it out at the Qualifier 2 later tonight in Bangalore. Whoever wins today will go straight to the IPL finale to meet RPS for the title match. KKR are coming fresh into this game after their thumping victory against the defending champions Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) on Thursday on this very pitch.

KKR might be having a dreadful record against Mumbai Indians at IPL, but they are surely playing sublimely this year. MI have defeated KKR at both home and away matches against the KKR, but Gautam Gambhir knows it very well how to bounce back at the right time. In the first match at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai, Hardik Pandya hit explosive 29 off 11 balls, while guiding his team to a fantastic win when men-in-blue still needed 60 runs from the last 4 overs.

Then again, at another close match in Eden Gardens, MI restricted KKR from scoring the last 9 runs snatching another victory from team Kolkata. However, tonight’s qualifier 2 match is completely different, and if KKR gets better of MI then Rohit Sharma’s team will be ousted from the tournament. No doubt, it is literally a semi-final between MI Vs KKR.
