For the Kolkata IPL team, now Shoaib Akhtar will be sharing the fast bowling responsibilities along with Ishant Sharma, Umar Gul and Ajit Agarkar.Agarkar said Shoaib will be of great help to the Kolkata Knight Riders..

 Obviously, all of us are disappointed. We started off well but as you know in twenty20, everyday is a new day and we haven't played well enough in the games that have gone by and that has probably reflected in the results as well. While, the other teams have obviously played better than us.

Chennai Super Kings outclass Kings XI Punjab to enter final
Chennai Super Kings  drubbed Kings XI Punjab  by nine wickets in a lop-sided contest in Mumbai on Saturday night to storm into Sunday's final against table toppers Rajasthan Royals .

After restricting the Punjab side to a meagre 112 for eight, the Chennai side romped home riding on a second wicket stand of 102 runs between opener Parthiv Patel (51 off 48 balls) and Suresh Raina (55 off 34 balls) at the Wankhede Stadium.

The best chance for Kings XI, after putting up a pathetic batting display on winning the toss, was to strike a few early blows.

They managed to dismiss opener S Vidyut cheaply for six to reduce Chennai to 14 for one, but then the left-handed combination of Patel and the more aggressive Raina took control of the proceedings.

They made runs at a comfortable pace and raced past the finish line in 14.5 overs to complete a thumping victory.
