The change in leadership did not translate into change of fortune, though, as Chennai suffered an eight-wicket shellacking by Kolkata Knight Riders on Friday. Put into bat, Chennai managed 103-9, their lowest total at home, and Kolkata romped home with nearly 10 overs to spare. "If you start looking for 60 in six overs with our line-up, it will be very difficult for us." "In a big, long tournament like the IPL, it is about momentum. But that's not to say things can't turn around and can't turn around quickly."
