In the last league match of the season, the KKR were coasting to victory over the Mumbai Indians at the Eden Gardens.

But James Franklin had other ideas as he smashed Balaji for 4, 4, 4 and 4 in the first four deliveries of the over. He took a single of the next ball and put Ambati Rayudu on strike.
