• Kolkata: Unfazed by the narrow loss to Mumbai Indians in their final league engagement, Kolkata Knight Riders skipper Gautam Gambhir said his team has more positives than negatives to take from the last-ball defeat.
  

After setting Mumbai Indians a tall 177-run target last night, the Knight Riders lost the match in the last over when, needing 21 runs, Laxmipathy Balaji conceded 23 -- including four fours and a last ball six -- to end their round-robin campaign on a disappointing note.

But Gambhir was in no mood to be bogged down by the loss and said they have many positives to take away into the play-off stage of the tournament.

"Getting 176 itself was a big effort. It was more than a par score and we were very happy with the total. Spinners and Brett Lee bowled well.
