David Warner marked his return to the IPL by flaunting ominous form but it was all about Andre Russell in the end as the Kolkata Knight Riders snatched a dramatic victory from the Sunrisers Hyderabad at the Eden Gardens on Sunday.

Chasing a challenging 182, the Knights seemed down and out till the burly West Indian decided to add the final twist to the tale with a stunning 19-ball 49 that helped the hosts over the line with six wickets and only a couple of balls to spare. Russell hit four boundaries and four sixes.
