- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR7.5 Smith's struggle has finally ended - 11 off 29 balls. That's going to hurt West Indies. He prodded from the crease at a delivery that stopped on him a little and it popped up towards silly mid off, Ashwin moved quickly to his left and dived to take the catch 38/112.6 Gayle's been run out, by miles. He's had a shocker today, though he made 34 off 33 balls. He barely middled anything. Samuels cut the ball straight to point and set off, Gayle responded but he's a really slow runner and had no chance once Shami fielded sharply and threw to Dhoni 62/214.3 stumped! Mishra tosses up a legbreak, Samuels comes forward but is hopelessly beaten in the flight, the ball dips and spins away from him, beating the bat. Dhoni lights up the bails. The third umpire isn't needed. 74/319.4 caught at backward point, Dhawan fumbles but holds on! Simmons slogged once again but top edged it this time. the fielder moved from cover point to backward point and took it 121/714.4 lbw! The googly does Bravo in. Mishra pitched just outside off and spun it back into the right-hander. Bravo pushed forward to a legbreak and was struck plumb in front. I haven't seen such a miserable T20 innings in a while 74/417.3 caught on the edge of the long off boundary! Sammy biffed the flat ball with a flat bat but did not time the shot, it nearly went all the way but Rohit positioned himself well and took a well judged catch 97/519.1 Russel slogs across the line and like so many others before him, he mis-times it. Kohli gets under it at deep midwicket and takes the catch comfortably 108/6Extras14 (lb 1, nb 1, w 12)TOTAL129/7 (20 Overs, RR: 6.45)Fall of wickets: 1-38 (Dwayne Smith, 7.5 ov), 2-62 (Chris Gayle, 12.6 ov), 3-74 (Marlon Samuels, 14.3 ov), 4-74 (Dwayne Bravo, 14.4 ov), 5-97 (Daren Sammy, 17.3 ov), 6-108 (Andre Russell, 19.1 ov), 7-121 (Lendl Simmons, 19.4 ov)

Player of the Match
- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR0.5 lbw! That looked like it was missing leg though. Dhawan played back to a fuller ball that was much quicker and skidded on to him, he tried to chop at the ball but was beaten and hit on the pad. The ball pitched outside leg stump too, poor decision. 1/114.4 Kohli's been bowled and he does not like it! He was aiming for the big shot across the line, the ball pitched outside off and he got an inside edge back on to his stumps. Swings his bat in disappointment. 107/219.3 caught at slip! Yuvraj goes and it's been a struggle for him once again. He tried to dab the ball towards third man as it spun away from him and edged it to his RCB team-mate Chris Gayle 129/3Extras3 (nb 1, w 2)TOTAL130/3 (19.4 Overs, RR: 6.61)Fall of wickets: 1-1 (Shikhar Dhawan, 0.5 ov), 2-107 (Virat Kohli, 14.4 ov), 3-129 (Yuvraj Singh, 19.3 ov)

Match Coverage
All Match NewsThe Yuvraj conundrum
Yuvraj Singh is making his third comeback since recovering from cancer, but with the breakneck and pressure-filled T20 being the only format he has to make a case for a permanent place, he has looked woefully short of confidence
Mishra emerges from the sidelines
With the belief of his captain behind him and a familiar format to help him, Amit Mishra has employed his strength - flight and turn - to bolster his case for a permanent spot
West Indies shackled by swing and spin
West Indies have often started slowly before, but this time their big-hitters weren't allowed to open out when the innings prospered
When will the second innings begin?
