Sunil Narine starred with both the bat and the ball as Kolkata Knight Riders thrashed Chennai Super Kings by eight wickets to regain their winning momentum in the Indian Premier League on Friday.

Narine picked up three wickets with his off-spin before hitting 44 off 18 balls with the help of five sixes and two fours to help Kolkata overhaul a below-par Chennai 103-9 with as many as 59 balls to spare.

Five-time champions Chennai crashed to their fifth defeat in a row, leaving their fans mighty disappointed. The total was Chennai's lowest at their home ground Chepauk and the third-lowest ever in the IPL. Kolkata are now third in the points table with Chennai languishing in ninth position in the 10-team competition.
