Kolkata clinch 3rd playoff spot

HYDERABAD, May 20 (AFP): Kolkata Knight Riders became the third team to make the Indian Premier League play-offs on a day when Virat Kohli's Royal Challengers Bangalore bowed out of the Twenty20 tournament.
Australia's Chris Lynn helped Kolkata outplay table-toppers Sunrisers Hyderabad by five wickets on Saturday to finish the league stage with eight wins in 14 games.
Lynn's 43-ball 55 helped two-time champions Kolkata chase down their 173-run target in 19.4 overs at Hyderabad's Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium.
