    4.5 that's gone! This was on a length and outside off, Bains pushes that with soft hands infront of mid-off and calls for the single. Gambhir ran forward and picks up with one hand and moves across and a direct throw to the bowler's end. Bains was way short as he slides his bat but not able to reach it 19/1
    23.3 Chopra finally loses out his coolness! This was touch short and around the off stumpish line, he moves touch forward and tries to drive on the rise through cover. Ball rises a bit more and he was in no position to play that on the front foot, edges it towards Negi at backward of point 77/3
    10.3 and Bist walks back! This is a real disappointment for him and so do the fans with the form he was carrying into this game. This was on a length and just outside off which straightens. Bist stays on the crease and almost struck around it as no real feet movement there, pokes at it as the ball catches the outside edge and lands into the safe hands of the keeper. He was actually in dual mind of playing on the front foot and then decides to stay back, also this ball doesn't cuts back in as he was expecting it to be.. 32/2
    32.2 another settled guy throws it away! This was tossed up on middle stump from round the wicket. Dogra backs away to the leg touch and then clears the front leg for an inside out lofted drive over the extra cover. He didn't get the elevation as he nor kept it down nor gets the required distance, went flat into the hands of Chand at long-off 103/5

    30.1 bowled'em! Negi comes round the wicket and slides this in from wide of the crease, pitches it around the off stump and on a length. Dhawan gets down on one knee and tries to sweep that, he anticipates a slider one, this one straightens rather as he plays out down the wrong line. Ball knocks out the off stump, very poor shot with the contradictions 98/4
    50 and Bipul holes out to the final ball of the innings. Short of a length delivery down leg, as he swivels and mistimes the pull down towards the deepish square leg. Chand places underneath it and grabs it without any trouble. 200/9
    37.2 tossed up delivery way outside off, strides forward and tries to loft that wide of long-on. He was not able to reach to the pitch of it as Rana pushes that quite widish and way still quite away from the body. He ends up hitting that flat into the hands of Ishant at long-on. This was always coming with the approach from last few overs from Gangta, though looked very agricultural player 128/6
    39.2 pushes that quite wide outside off, quite full and entices Verma to come onto the front foot. Verma gets a big stride forward and tries to reach to the pitch of it but it went past the outside edge. In the process he drags his back foot out too much as Pant collects the ball and removes the bails, he was found short as he tries to drag his foot back. 131/7
    49 and he holes out finally, Bhati keeps the slower one once again outside off. Bowls that from back of the hand on a length and a bit widish, Dagar tries to reaches for it and slaps it down the ground. He doesn't get the elevation as Negi ran forward from long-off and catches that. 188/8

    7.3 and here's the wicket that Himachal was looking for..More pushes that across from a fullish length outside off. Pant was invited for that front foot drive, who obliges and driven uppishly but it went flat into the hands of cover point. He just played that away from the body, could have tried to lean a bit more, or just bit of more elevation to keep that touch up and over the fielder 32/1
    18 and its Bipul Sharma who finally able to break this partnership. He pushes that flat on an length and quite straightish from round the wicket. Dhawan stays on the crease and tries to drive that through off side, gets an inside edge to the pad which ricochet back onto the stumps. 93/2

    25.1 and this time he gets the wicket of Gambhir! Gangta comes round the wicket and pitches this around the off stump on a length. This one doesn't slide that much as the previous two did, Gambhir mostly thought the other way, kept a bit low too. He plays inside the line and hits him on the front pad, that's hitting middle stump. 124/3
    29 comes round the wicket, bowls that flatter and on a length outside off. Milind pushes that infront of cover point with soft hands and calls for the single, Chand was the ball watcher there and ends up sending him back. Milind already was half way down the track. Chopra throws it to the keeper who removes the bails in a flash, batsman dives full length but not enough. 146/3
