- BATSMENRB4s6sSR12.2 down the wicket, beaten in the flight as he drags the length back, the lack of spin means he gets an inside edge onto the pad and the ball rolls to Dhoni's right, who collects and stumps Shaw 103/210.4 he tries the reverse shot and is given out lbw. He is looking to go over the point ring, but he plays it ordinarily. He doesn't sweep it. He is trying to play a reverse shot upright, and it is not easy. Not when Chawla fires in it to trap you plumb 94/118.6 the frustration has got to Iyer. Lovely over from Curran ends with a reward. Slower offcutter, wide outside off, Iyer just swings for the fences, and gets a thick outside edge. Dhoni dives to his right to take the catch. A highly disappointing innings from Iyer: SR of under 120 161/3Extras8 (lb 5, w 3)TOTAL175/3 (20 Overs, RR: 8.75)Fall of wickets: 1-94 (Shikhar Dhawan, 10.4 ov), 2-103 (Prithvi Shaw, 12.2 ov), 3-161 (Shreyas Iyer, 18.6 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR5.6 Vijay's frustrating stay ends. Hard length against a batsman under pressure to hit out almost always works. The bat turns in his hand as he swings hard at it. Lobs it for a catch to midwicket 34/24.2 make it one more success for Patel against Watson. The analysts will love it. A sixth wicket of Watson in under 60 balls. Watson is keen to break the hold and is looking for one big hit. He seems this flat and goes back to pull but it skids an and he doesn't get the power or the elevation. Easy catch for deep midwicket. It is acutally not that easy. Hetmyer is taken aback by the power behind the shot but he has done well 23/117.2 finally. Faf has edged one straight to a fielder, and the said fielder completes the catch. He is backing away again, and Rabada smartly slips in a wide delivery, and the outside edge settles with Pant 113/59.1 do we have a run-out here? Yes we do. Du Plessis refuses the single when it is Gaekwad's call. Bottom edge behind square, and that should be the non-striker's call. Faf takes a couple of steps and sends him back after he has come halfway up the wicket. Pant is quick, gets the glove off, slides, throws, Patel doesn't collect clean but still has time to recover and run him out 44/315.4 that is plumb lbw. The asking rate means he has to do something out of the ordinary, and Nortje is too good. Runs the fingers on a length ball that is headed straight for the stumps. Jadhav is looking to slog it and is beaten comprehensively. No question of a review 98/419.3 Dhoni walks off. Doesn't wait to see if this low catch is clean or not. Rabada rolls his fingers on the short ball, Dhoni gets a top edge thanks to the extra bounce, and Pant dives in front to take the catch 130/619.6 that's that. One more for Rabada. Three wickets at the death. Jadeja just gives catching pressure to Mishra at point 131/7Extras5 (lb 1, w 4)TOTAL131/7 (20 Overs, RR: 6.55)Fall of wickets: 1-23 (Shane Watson, 4.2 ov), 2-34 (Murali Vijay, 5.6 ov), 3-44 (Ruturaj Gaikwad, 9.1 ov), 4-98 (Kedar Jadhav, 15.4 ov), 5-113 (Faf du Plessis, 17.2 ov), 6-130 (MS Dhoni, 19.3 ov), 7-131 (Ravindra Jadeja, 19.6 ov)
