A volley from Marc Pugh has ensured that Bournemouth are level with Leicester City at half time.
The score is 1-1 at the break after an early header from David Nugent had put the home side ahead.
Bournemouth started well, keeping possession and creating half-chances through Lewis Grabban and Ryan Fraser.
It was the hosts who took the lead though, after a move involving Lloyd Dyer and Nugent. Dyer found the run of Leicester's top scorer, who curled the ball in from the edge of the box.
They almost doubled their lead moments later when Nugent met Knockaert's corner, but his header was cleared off the line by Steve Cook.
The Cherries did get themselves back into it shortly before the break, when Pugh picked up the ball on the right and unleashed a dipping volley into the top corner.
