- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR10.5 he has given it away! Uthappa charges down the pitch, but Negi has been bowling much slower. He is beaten in the flight, then the ball grips the surface and breaks past the outside edge, Uthappa is stranded down the middle as Dhoni takes the bails off 91/116.2 Baz runs in from long-off and slides in to complete a smart low catch! Gambhir's excellent innings comes to an end. He was looking to drag this fuller delivery from wide of off to the on side, but gets a thick top edge 136/312.1 Negi gets his man! Kallis takes a step down the crease and looks to chip it inside out, but the ball turns away and catches the outside half of the bat, goes high towards cover point where Nehra takes a good running catch 97/218.1 he takes his third! Flatter delivery, turning away, Pandey goes for the big shot anyway but doesn't get the distance. the fielder at long-on moves to his right and swallows an easy chance 159/418.3 another wicket! this is superb! He spots RTD make a move down the pitch and tosses it up wide outside off. Tendo has to reach out but he can't make it, this is too wide.. the turn takes it further away.. Then it's an easy job for Dhoni. Excellent work from the bowler. It's a wide, but who cares 161/518.5 what an over! Negi gets five! Surya wants to take whatever he can from this over, looks to reverse slap over the short third man fielder but doesn't get any elevation. Simple catch for the fielder. Negi does an anti-Nehra 161/6Extras6 (lb 2, nb 1, w 3)TOTAL180/6 (20 Overs, RR: 9)Fall of wickets: 1-91 (Robin Uthappa, 10.5 ov), 2-97 (Jacques Kallis, 12.1 ov), 3-136 (Gautam Gambhir, 16.2 ov), 4-159 (Manish Pandey, 18.1 ov), 5-161 (Ryan ten Doeschate, 18.3 ov), 6-161 (Suryakumar Yadav, 18.5 ov)
- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR0.5 superb superb! This is almost a spinners' yorker. Bowls it slow, and it dips on the batsman and lands perfectly, under the bat and on to the stumps. Smith thought he had had it covered, but this was perfect. The ball actually hits the bat, but it rolls back to the stumps 9/113.1 he looks to hit across the line and aims towards deep midwicket but he has picked the man in the deep, straight to Tendo. He doesn't have to move an inch 127/2Extras6 (lb 2, w 4)TOTAL185/2 (18.3 Overs, RR: 10)Fall of wickets: 1-9 (Dwayne Smith, 0.5 ov), 2-127 (Brendon McCullum, 13.1 ov)
