Australian all-rounder Cameron Green returned to the bowling crease but failed to ignite Kolkata Knight Riders' winless run in the Indian Premier League (IPL). Green, who was the IPL's most expensive overseas recruit, had previously played his first three matches as a batter while recovering from a lower back injury. Despite returning for the penultimate over, he was out for 16 by Mukul Choudhary, who finished 54 not out off 27 balls. KolkATA ended their four-match unbeaten run with a score of 181-4 against Lucknow.
