Skipper Suresh Raina led from the front to help struggling Gujarat Lions to a comprehensive four-wicket win over two-time champions Kolkata Knight Riders.

He was ably supported by Brendon McCullum (33) and Aaron Finch (31) who stitched 42 runs off just 21 balls for the opening stand to get Gujarat Lions' chase off to a flier.
