- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR11.3 length on middle. Skidding straight through. Rahul tries the sweep, misses, hits him on the pad. Appeal for LBW and a quick out call from the umpire. Rahul asks Kohli what to do, and eventually chooses to review. No bat involved, and ball-tracking says? OH-YOU-TEE. Crashing into middle and leg. Second wicket for Maharaj but Rahul gets a massive applause from the Guwahati crowd for his 28-ball 57 tonight 107/29.5 taken at deep midwicket! Not full enough for Rohit to hit the slog sweep the way he wants to. Doesn't middle it, ends up dragging it to the sweeper fielder on the leg side. Maharaj's economy under six while the Innings run-rate is almost 10. Drinks 96/118.1 mix-up and it is only a run-out that could get this man out today. Kohli smacked a cut to Bavuma at point, and Suryakumar had taken off for a single to get back on strike. However, both men know there is no single, and Kohli was ball-watching too. Suryakumar doesn't even bother running back since he is so far down. Good throw from the captain, a composed collection from Nortje. 209/3Extras10 (b 1, lb 3, nb 2, w 4)TOTAL237/3 (20 Overs, RR: 11.85)Fall of wickets: 1-96 (Rohit Sharma, 9.5 ov), 2-107 (KL Rahul, 11.3 ov), 3-209 (Suryakumar Yadav, 18.1 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR1.2 Taken at mid-off! Bavuma tried to loft a length ball on the up over the infield. It went off the bottom, Kohli backtracked a couple of steps and took it comfortably. Arshdeep smiles in celebration. 1/11.4 Dinesh Karthik juggles and takes it on the third attempt! It was a short ball outside off. Rossouw charged him early, tried to drag the pull. Skied it off the edge. DK got to it at cover, fumbled it. It wriggled aside but he managed to cling on. 1/26.2 Beaten on the cover drive, and ball hits top of off! It was on a length, angling in. Markram stayed leg side and tried to loft it inside out. Spun away a little bit and Axar gets his man. 47/3Extras13 (nb 3, w 10)TOTAL221/3 (20 Overs, RR: 11.05)Fall of wickets: 1-1 (Temba Bavuma, 1.2 ov), 2-1 (Rilee Rossouw, 1.4 ov), 3-47 (Aiden Markram, 6.2 ov)
