IPL 2017: David Warner upset with KKR fans; did Eden garden crowd cheat?

It seems Kuldeep Yadav was not the only one troubling David Warner with his wrist spin. During the eighth over the whole of Eden Gardens lighted their cell phone flashlights and play was stopped.

David Warner complained to the officiating umpire that he cannot see the white ball against the barrage of flash lights. Kolkata Knight Riders captain, Gautam Gambhir was also seen having a chat with the umpires. After a brief discussion, play was allowed to carry on.

Incidentally, Warner was sent back to the pavilion by Yadav in his next over with a slightly flighted delivery, when he was caught at long off.  

Sorry Warner, may be you can carry our shades next time when you bat at the Eden Gardens. 

In the end, it didn't matter and riding on Robin Uthappa's gritty half-century and spinners' contribution, Kolkata Knight Riders today secured a 17-run win over defending champions Sunrisers Hyderabad in their Indian Premier League match and climbed to the top of the table.  Defending a tricky 173 on a lively Eden track, KKR spin trio of Kuldeep Yadav (1/23), Sunil Narine (1/18) and Yusuf Pathan (1/2) gave vital breakthroughs to dent the chase of the Sunrisers and hand the team its second successive win at home.

For the Sunrisers, who began their campaign with back- to-back victories at home, this was their second defeat on the trot.

David Warner (26 off 30; 4x4) and Shikhar Dhawan (23 off 22; 4x4) gave Sunrisers a flying start with 45 from six overs but part-time spinner Pathan turned it around by removing the Indian left-hander en route to his impressive figures of 1-0- 2-1.
