Kolkata: Kolkata Knight Riders skipper Gautam Gambhir said the seven-wicket over Chennai Super Kings here today tested the "character and temperament" of his team especially after the away loss against the same opponents a few days back.

Robin Uthappa (80 not out) and Andre Russell (59 not out) struck belligerent fifties after veteran Brad Hogg's 4 for 29 to help KKR return to winning ways with a seven-wicket win CSK at the Eden Gardens.
