Kolkata knockout Rajasthan

Laxmi Shukla hit an unbeaten 48 and Charl Langeveldt took three wickets as the Kolkata Knight Riders beat the Rajasthan Royals by four wickets to dump the defending champions out of the IPL on Wednesday.

''It's really disappointing but we were just not good enough the whole tournament,'' said Rajasthan captain Shane Warne. ''I want to thank everyone in South Africa that supported me and the Royals.''
