    8.2 Bit short on middle, goes for the pull and hasn't got all of it, early through the shot and gets puzzled the slower one, Chopra takes a superb running catch at deep square as Capitals get their first wicket 81/1
    13.4 Gone! Slow short of a length ball around the line off, rash hoick through the off side and punches it straight to van der Merwe at extra cover who takes a brilliant catch as Hales admonishes himself for his unforced error, troubled by the slowness of the delivery. Excellent bowling from Holder! 116/2
    15.1 Drops it short from round the wicket angle on middle, yanks his front-foot out of the way and slugs it in the air, hasn't got the requisite distance and Kuggeleijn has taken a screamer at deep midwicket, that ball was travelling but he was aware and alert, took few steps to his left and snaffled it at his head height. Another momentum-breaker for Vipers, captain departs 121/4
    14.6 Gottim, pressure has finally told! Thumped so hard into the surface on an attacking off stump line, tries to play a swivel pull but is through the shot late, gets a leading edge that goes straight to David Warner at mid-off and he goes without adding anything to the total, he was going nowhere with his innings but I feel they bowled smartly to him. That's a good breakthrough for Capitals because he is a dangerous customer 121/3
    16.4 Miscues the skier! Round the wicket, slammed into the surface and zings it back into the left-hander who swings for the grandstands but hasn't got all of it, Chopra with another sprawling catch at deep backward square and Vipers innings is falling apart 127/5

    19.5 Yorker on midlde and off, slices it away to backward point and heads down the pitch, Hasaranga is well short of the crease and Kuggeleijn rockets a throw at non-striker's end, Holder calmly whips off the bails 163/6

    0.3 Jauntily heaved into the air and Pathirana takes an absolute stunner running back cover and takes a gem! Danger man departs early in the piece, he was swinging at every delivery and just got carried away. Ball was swirling away outside off and he swung hard and top-edged it 9/1
    3.6 On a length and angling in from outside off, innocuous pace, tries to thump him up and over cover and has mistimed it completely, hand came off the back and Colin Munro gobbles it up gleefully at cover and Shaheen has got the big fish, he is absolutely elated, they know the value of this wicket as Warner's grim run of form in UAE continues 39/2
    9.2 Vipers get the set man out! Tossed up straight and he looks to big downtown, that was swirling away towards long-off and he catches it above his head, massive wicket! Lose control of his bat and Vipers are right back in this game with a timely wicket. Hasaranga with a cool catch 80/4
    6.2 Tosses up a delicious full legbreak turning away from middle and he chips it back to Hasaranga, tries to flick him leg side and miscued it, more flight on this occasion, Billings tried to dictate his terms and didn't him to settle into his groove and radar but ends up falling cheaply. Hasaranga produces the first bit of magic tonight 56/3
    13.5 Top-edge fountained straight up and fell into Pathirana's hands who was sitting deep in the crease! I think I've jinxed Raza there! That was a pace-on delivery in the channel, got more height than distance and this will lift Vipers up! Crucial, crucial scalp! 121/5

    15.4 This match keeps oscillating like a pendulum! Tossed up on middle and leg, gets down low to it and tries to scoop him but it gripped and bounced, Chopra top-edges it straight to Mohammad Amir at short fine who makes no mistake 132/6
