- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR8.1 got him! Rahane plays all across the line, trying to swing this length ball pushed through and hears the leg-stump rattled. 68/31.1 straight through him! That is an absolute corker first up. Slants one in full on the stumps from wide of the crease and Rachin nibbles down the wrong line as he tries to off-drive. The ball beats the inside edge to crash into the stumps. 4/14.2 comes back wonderfully! Thakur gets this length ball to move away just a touch, Gaikwad drives away from the body and ends up nicking behind, good catch by Rahul diving to his right. 33/211.1 excellent catch! Dube looks to fetch this pull from way outside off but ends up slicing it high in the air as Rahul calls for it and then hares forward to take it neatly. Didn't look like dropping it at any point. 87/412.2 poor shot under the circumstances. Runs down the pitch to heave across the line, Krunal cleverly dragged his length back and got this to turn and Rahul effects the simplest of stumpings. Completely lost his shape. 90/517.5 picks out deep midwicket this time. Didn't time it as well as he would've liked, Moeen's followthrough and his reaction as he hit it was a dead giveaway, but hey, he walks off to a rousing reception. Ekana stands.......because MS Dhoni's walking out 141/6Extras4 (lb 1, w 3)TOTAL176/6 (20 Overs, RR: 8.8)Fall of wickets: 1-4 (Rachin Ravindra, 1.1 ov), 2-33 (Ruturaj Gaikwad, 4.2 ov), 3-68 (Ajinkya Rahane, 8.1 ov), 4-87 (Shivam Dube, 11.1 ov), 5-90 (Sameer Rizvi, 12.2 ov), 6-141 (Moeen Ali, 17.5 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR14.6 Finally the breakthrough! The most low-key of celebrations there could be for a wicket. Back of a length, offcutter again, de Kock goes back to ramp it over the wicketkeeper but only manages a feather. Unable to get away from the line, too. Dhoni does the rest and de Kock walks. End of a stupendous opening partnership that all but seals it for LSG at home 134/117.1 Jadeja flier ends Rahul's stay! Leaps to his left from backward point and dives to pluck it out. Wrings his left hand after the effort. Superb effort to end a top knock. He stands deep and cuts a length ball that is well outside off. But he couldn't get it past a flying Jaddu. Looks like the TV ump wants to check the fairness of the catch and it is all good. It was an umpire's review.
