- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR11.2 Skied and it's taken! It was on a length just outside off, Jaiswal tried to drag it through aerially and it took the top edge. Mid-on moved to his left, settled under it and took the catch 101/32.2 knocks the off stump! Buttler has been on 2 off 5, he wants to up the scoring and goes across a long way to scoop it fine leg, but misses it completely. Avesh is pumped, he kind of gives Buttler a send-off while thumping his heart with his right fist. It was a perfect length ball that went on to hit top of off stump, which has gone to Marine Drive for a walk. Avesh had Buttler bowled the last time too 11/18.5 nearly checks his lofted drive, finds deep cover, and Holder brings out his three-finger celebration. It was slow and full outside off, Samson slices that square instead of muscling it over the covers, which he had been doing earlier, and it goes high before landing in the hands of Hooda in the deep 75/213.4 Holes out to deep-midwicket with a slog-sweep! It was a googly that pitched on off and the full ball was swept hard and in the air. It took the edge and went flat to Krunal, who took it well 122/417.1 Pulled in the air and it is taken by Stoinis at deep-midwicket! It was on the shorter side and on the stumps, Parag swiveled but the connection was not good enough. It went flat and Stoinis went to his right and took it low to his right 149/517.4 Run-out at the non-striker's end after a mix-up! It came after Ashwin drove a full ball on middle to cover. Neesham took off for the run and Ashwin was ball-watching, the question is did they cross? It looked like Ashwin was walking but they were told to wait. Neesham had completed around three-fourth of the run and they have not crossed even though they tried to albeit in the last moment. The ball went to the right of the fielder, who got the ball on a good bounce 152/6Extras4 (lb 1, nb 1, w 2)TOTAL178/6 (20 Overs, RR: 8.9)Fall of wickets: 1-11 (Jos Buttler, 2.2 ov), 2-75 (Sanju Samson, 8.5 ov), 3-101 (Yashasvi Jaiswal, 11.2 ov), 4-122 (Devdutt Padikkal, 13.4 ov), 5-149 (Riyan Parag, 17.1 ov), 6-152 (James Neesham, 17.4 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR2.1 taken at point, Neesham takes a sharp one! They're going to check for the catch though. de Kock slashed the short ball square, Neesham at point went low in front to get his fingers under it and the third umpire is convinced that he got his fingers under it cleanly 15/15.3 Prasidh counters and Rahul is taken at point! He bangs it in short and nips it in from outside off, Rahul wants to slice it over point but Jaiswal is stationed absolutely square at the edge of the circle, and he times his jump nicely to get both hands to it 29/32.2 first ball duck for Badoni, Boult traps him lbw! Badoni reviews it after consulting his captain, but he might have wasted a review there because he wouldn't have asked Rahul if there was an edge. Pitched on middle, swinging in, hitting middle of middle. Boult knew it was out and appealed loudly with his team-mates as soon as it hit the pad after going past the bat as Badoni failed to connect with his flick 15/215.6 Samson uproots the stumps after fumbling the ball and somehow dismisses Hooda! The third umpire is checking, it came after Hooda came down the ground and tried to whack the full ball, following him, straight. It took the inside edge, then the pad, and dribbled to Samson. The keeper fumbled multiple times and managed to push the ball, sans control, on the stumps. Hooda, for whatever reason, did not try to come back. The third umpire decides on a few replays that the bails came off because of the ball, gives it out. 116/513.1 Excellent assisted catch between Jos at long-on and Riyan at long-off! It's referred upstairs but it looked fine. It came after Krunal came down the ground and went through with the lofted straight swipe, it went flat but a few metres to the right of Jos, he managed to reach out, take it on the move, and lob it to his partner while going diagonally over the fence. Parag stretched up and back, he maintained balance and took it well. Ashwin celebrates as the crowd breaks into cheers. 94/419.2 Parag takes it easily at long-on this time! Length ball outside off, Stoinis slapped across the line, it goes up and Parag comes in and takes it. He slowly took the ball down and cheekily lifted it just before it hit the ground 151/816.4 Edged and taken! Cross-seamer at yorker length on fourth stump has Holder, who had the front leg out the way, manufacture an open-faced drive towards cover point but it takes the outside edge. Taken by Samson to his right followed by celebrations 120/616.6 Bowls him with a yorker on middle! Chameera had his front leg out the way, as is often the case at the death, and tried to whack it over midwicket. The ball went past the swing and disturbed the furniture to McCoy's delight 120/7Extras15 (lb 3, w 12)TOTAL154/8 (20 Overs, RR: 7.7)Did not bat: Ravi BishnoiFall of wickets: 1-15 (Quinton de Kock, 2.1 ov), 2-15 (Ayush Badoni, 2.2 ov), 3-29 (KL Rahul, 5.3 ov), 4-94 (Krunal Pandya, 13.1 ov), 5-116 (Deepak Hooda, 15.6 ov), 6-120 (Jason Holder, 16.4 ov), 7-120 (Dushmantha Chameera, 16.6 ov), 8-151 (Marcus Stoinis, 19.2 ov)
