Uthappa's timing
Robin Uthappa temporarily became the leading run-getter of the main edition of the tournament during his 39, and his timing was as good as it has been through the IPL and CLT20. Off the last ball of R Ashwin's first over, Uthappa took a step out and drove at a pitched up delivery. He checked the shot in the end and held his followthrough. But the ball took flight and went soaring over long-on as if it had been clobbered.
Raina's miss
Two balls after he had put down a diving chance off Jacques Kallis at slip, Suresh Raina tried to anticipate a stroke from Gautam Gambhir at short fine leg. Gambhir prepared to tuck Ravindra Jadeja off his pads behind square and Raina started to move to his right early. However, Gambhir ended up going finer than Raina had expected him to, and the ball ran away for four to the fielder's left, leaving Jadeja furious.
Du Plessis' attempt
Gambhir swung Pawan Negi flat down the ground and the commentator said it was heading for six, but Faf du Plessis decided to intervene at long-on. He jumped high and plucked the ball with both hands. He landed back on the ground, threw the ball up as he teetered beyond the rope and came back in to take it again. Replays showed he had stepped onto the boundary the first time he took the ball, and Gambhir stayed.
Cummins' slow yorker
Dwayne Smith had already cracked Pat Cummins for two fours in the first over of the chase when the fast bowler slipped in a slow yorker. Smith brought his bat down too early to try and keep it out. It hit the ground before the ball arrived and bounced up. The ball now hit the bat, and slid under the small opening to disturb the bails.
Yadav's misfields
Suryakumar Yadav seemed to have a sweep from Brendon McCullum covered with a sprint and a slide at deep square leg. Only, the ball slid under his slide to roll into the rope. The next ball was swept straight to him, and he bent down on his knee for a regulation stop, only to let the ball slip through his fingers for another embarrassing four.
