Cricket: KKR beat Mumbai to keep their IPL play-off hopes alive

# Cricket: Three-time champions Kolkata Knight Riders defeated Mumbai Indians by four wickets to keep alive their slim hope of reaching the Indian Premier League playoffs. Mumbai, who are already eliminated, posted 147 for eight from their 20 overs. In reply, Manish Pandey top-scored with 45 off 33 balls while Rovman Powell made 40, as KKR reached their target with seven balls to spare. KKR need to beat the Delhi Capitals in their final match and hope that Rajasthan Royals and Punjab Kings lose theirs, to make the playoffs.
