    37.5 and the first wicket..a very good take by the fielder at silly point. Flatter length delivery pitched outside leg stump. Desai prods forward and tries to block it. It hits the top half of the bat and Raman, the substitute fielder held the catch 82/1

    48.1 Barot reviews as he was given out caught behind..On a good length and outside off, Barot took half a step forward to defend. But, ends up with an outside edge back to the keeper. It was definitely off the bat as the third umpire S Ravi confirms. Both the teams have lost a review each. 113/2

    150.3 and he's gone..given lbw..This one kept low and hits the back pad. Pujara goes for the review..Fuller in length on off. Pujara tries to defend it but plays inside the line, as it goes past the bat and hits the back pad. Impact is umpire's call, as confirmed by Shamshuddin. So stays with on-field decision, but Saurashtra keeps the review. 358/7

    153 and one more..back of a length and outside off. Akash Deep is beaten as he tries to defend that. The keeper was quick to gather it and throws it towards the stumps, but missed it and went towards the bowler. Unadkat then collects it and sends a direct throw at the keeper's end. Akash Deep didn't drag his feet back into the crease as he was standing on the line. Given out. 361/7
