- BATSMENRB4s6sSR0.5 special bowling. Thirty runs in his last over. Five balls, no runs and a wicket in this. Lovely seam position angling towards slip, pitches on a length, on middle and leg, drawing a shot across the line, and then swinging late to beat him and hit the timber. The Cottrell salute is alive and well 0/116.1 relay catch first up. Shami has bowled a dangerous ball first up. Seam-up, on-pace, in the slot, but Sharma gets more air than lemgth on it. Maxwell runs to his right from long-off, is very close to the rope when he fumbles the catch, bit still holds on, recovers well and lobs it back in before going over. Neesham, the man at long-on, has done well to come backing up for the relay catch 124/43.5 slows this down, bowls full on the pads, he sweeps it fine, calls for a single, and Surya looks like he has been run out. And he is gone. Shami is feeling his shoulder but his throw from short fine leg has done the job, catching Yadav short of his ground with a direct hit. It is Yadav's call, he has had an early start, no stutter. So he has underestimated Shami here 21/213.1 Kishan has no choice but to slog-sweep the moment he sees a ball thrown up. However, the length is too full, which doesn't allow him the elevation. And he ends up drilling this straight to deep midwicket 83/3Extras6 (lb 1, w 5)TOTAL191/4 (20 Overs, RR: 9.55)Fall of wickets: 1-0 (Quinton de Kock, 0.5 ov), 2-21 (Suryakumar Yadav, 3.5 ov), 3-83 (Ishan Kishan, 13.1 ov), 4-124 (Rohit Sharma, 16.1 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR8.1 top of leg stump. Rahul is looking for the lap sweep, but the Chahar legbreak doesn't turn as he expects it to. That means he misses it, and the leg stump is left exposed. Chahar takes it 60/34.5 BOOM BOOM. You could just see that business had picked up this over. This is lovely bowling. After troubling him last two balls, he bowls a full ball just outside off with a Shami-like seam position. And he draws seam movement to rush through the gate 38/15.4 bowled'im. This plan of left-arm spin in the Powerplay has worked. He has given them nothing so far. Nair looking to manufacture a late cut, but Pandya stays on a length and draws the bottom edge into the stumps 39/213.2 on-pace this time. Seam-up, full, just outside off, and there has been some movement available today if you land it on the seam. This one deviates enough to take the edge. That is a huge wicket 101/414.5 angular run this time, and he keeps bowling the slow legbreaks. Maxwell plays the desperate slog, but this ball is not full enough for the shot. Deep midwicket takes the catch 107/515.6 full toss, on off, gets big on him, for a catch at point. They will check the height of the full toss, though. Has dipped just enough in the nick of time. So it is a fair delivery, and another wicket goes down 112/617.1 yorker, given lbw, but he reviews it. It seems he might have hit it, but this has swung as it goes past the bat, and hits him on the toe in front of the stumps. Plumb as. Was that reverse? It went really late 121/718.3 another one bites the dust. Full, straight, Bishnoi makes room, gets a thick outside edge, Yadav takes a simple catch at point 124/8Extras7 (lb 2, w 5)TOTAL143/8 (20 Overs, RR: 7.15)Did not bat: SS CottrellFall of wickets: 1-38 (Mayank Agarwal, 4.5 ov), 2-39 (Karun Nair, 5.4 ov), 3-60 (KL Rahul, 8.1 ov), 4-101 (Nicholas Pooran, 13.2 ov), 5-107 (Glenn Maxwell, 14.5 ov), 6-112 (James Neesham, 15.6 ov), 7-121 (Sarfaraz Khan, 17.1 ov), 8-124 (Ravi Bishnoi, 18.3 ov)
