Kumartuli or Kumortuli is located in the northern part of the city of Kolkata . The locality is a traditional habitat of the potters for nearly three hundred years.

Shah Rukh Khan’s KKR could do nothing good to itself, but it had dealt the death blow to RR. By beating Rajasthan Royals today Kolkata Knight Riders threw the winners of IPL-1 out of the tournament.

So then, the most probable semi final line up: DD, CSK, DC, RCB.
