CSK pacer Khaleel Ahmed walked off the field with suspected cramps during the match against Kolkata Knight Riders at the MA Chidambaram Stadim on Tuesday night.

The incident took place before the final delivery of the 17th over when Khaleel, running into bowl to Gurjapneet, pulled out of his run up, holding his right leg.

The 28-year-old attempted his run up one more time before he signalled to the dugout that he could not continue. Khaleel walked off the field, and Gurjapneet bowled the final delivery to close out that over.

CSK are inching close to a massive victory against KKR. Khaleel played a crucial role in the proceedings by taking the big wicket of Sunil Narine in the PowerPlay.
