- BATSMENRB4s6sSR2.6 sliced high for QDK and he takes it to his left. Short of a length ball rising at a leg stump line. He backs into the leg side and looks to swipe it with a horizontal bat. It's too steep and there's no room and all he manages is to slice this with the bat face pointed skywards 15/20.3 chopped straight to backward point! A sharp, low catch from, it looks like, Suryakumar. They've sent it upstairs with a soft signal out. A third man angle - the side angle in this case - shows he took the catch without the his hand touching the ground. That is, while the ball was still aerial. It's only in the follow through that his hand touches the turf, and from a front on angle, the umpire is satisfied that the back of the palm is under the ball. It's a second consecutive duck for Dhawan. This was a good length ball shaped away outside off, and he reached out for a square drive on the rise 1/110.2 stumping appeal as Iyer loses his shape and has his back leg in the air briefly. Good length ball rips away from him outside off as he goes across the line at this outside-off delivery. And his toe hasn't landed in time. QDK is quicker than Iyer. Lovely delivery from Chahar, a dipping legbreak outside off, but questionably shot selection from Iyer who was swishing all over that 50/311.4 big lbw appeal and it's given out. Sheepish smile as he discusses with Hetmyer before taking the review. Good length ball slides into him from around the wicket. He's beaten on the attempted flick. It's hit him on the outside of the knee flap, right in front of middle stump. It's a short stride. And it's out. Tracker shows that's hitting middle stump 62/511.1 thick edge is taken! On the second attempt by QDK. It's coming apart rapidly for DC. Short of a length ball slanted into the corridor. Stoinis looks to force it through the covers off the back foot, but he's ended up playing inside the line. It pops out of QDK's grasp before he takes it 57/415.2 pulled straight to deep square. Short of a length at middle stump, pulls aerially off the front foot and picks out Krunal Pandya who has only a couple of steps to take to his left 78/713.6 pinned in front playing across the line. Harshal is not happy, but there are no reviews left. Shakes his head as he walks off. That's hit the back thigh and looks high. Short of a length on a middle stump line. Looks to play the flick and misses. Might have gone over the stumps, that. Replays confirm that 73/618.1 taken by long-on running to his left! Krunal Pandya. Full ball outside off. Gets deep in the crease and lofts it straight over the bowler. Krunal seems to have over-run it to his left but just manages to get his hands in order. Almost looks like he ran chest-first into a floating ball. Takes a tumble and keeps the balance 96/819.6 slower short of a length ball into middle stump. Looks for the slog and gets an inside edge onto body. Takes a couple of steps down, tries to back into the crease as Bumrah swoops down on the ball. Hasn't stretched out quickly enough as Bumrah hits the stumps with an under-arm flick 110/9Extras5 (lb 3, w 2)TOTAL110/9 (20 Overs, RR: 5.5)Did not bat: A NortjeFall of wickets: 1-1 (Shikhar Dhawan, 0.3 ov), 2-15 (Prithvi Shaw, 2.6 ov), 3-50 (Shreyas Iyer, 10.2 ov), 4-57 (Marcus Stoinis, 11.1 ov), 5-62 (Rishabh Pant, 11.4 ov), 6-73 (Harshal Patel, 13.6 ov), 7-78 (Shimron Hetmyer, 15.2 ov), 8-96 (Ravichandran Ashwin, 18.1 ov), 9-110 (Kagiso Rabada, 19.6 ov)
