- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR1.2 shortish ball, too quick for Agarwal to pull, hurries through, and he top-edges it high in the air for Umesh to take a sprawling catch at long leg 3/18.4 bowled him. Was going for the slog-sweep, may have been playing for the turn. Went through straight and crashed into off stump 58/34.3 bowled him! That was an offbreak pitched outside leg stump. Duminy went for the sweep, the ball may have bounced more than he expected, and it hit the top of his pad, and maybe his glove as well, and ricocheted onto leg stump. Looked like pad onto forearm. 22/213.4 short ball outside off, and Tiwary's out after a good start. Plays a shovel-pull, doesn't hit it as sweetly as he'd like, and pops a simple catch to short midwicket 95/414.6 what was Yuvraj doing? It was a length ball on leg stump, and Yuvraj didn't connect with the sweep. Wandered out of his crease as it rolled to the keeper, and before he could realise it the bails were off - he took so long realising it that Uthappa missed the stumps once and took the bails off the second time 103/519.6 taken! That was full and wide and Mathews had a big slog at it, got a thick outside edge that was going a long way to the right of the keeper, but Uthappa dived across, at full stretch, and came away with the ball in his right glove 146/817.6 full outside off, and Jadhav picks out backward point. Makes room to slice it away, hits it fairly well, but straight to the fielder, who catches it just above head height 123/619.2 full and wide, flat-batted to long-off. Coulter-Nile ran back for the second, Mathews sent him back, and he had no chance of turning back and making his ground as the fielder, Manish Pandey, fired in a low, flat throw to the keeper 145/7Extras13 (lb 3, w 10)TOTAL146/8 (20 Overs, RR: 7.3)Fall of wickets: 1-3 (Mayank Agarwal, 1.2 ov), 2-22 (Jean-Paul Duminy, 4.3 ov), 3-58 (Shreyas Iyer, 8.4 ov), 4-95 (Manoj Tiwary, 13.4 ov), 5-103 (Yuvraj Singh, 14.6 ov), 6-123 (Kedar Jadhav, 17.6 ov), 7-145 (Nathan Coulter-Nile, 19.2 ov), 8-146 (Angelo Mathews, 19.6 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR4.1 fullish outside off, and Uthappa simply doesn't time that. Looked to hit it over mid-off, and I think that hit the outside half of his bat, and he ended up chipping it straight to mid-off 31/117.5 chops it on. Gives himself room to cut, it turns just enough and doesn't bounce as much as expected, and he ends up inside-edging into his off stump 144/44.4 short outside off, and Pandey has simply helped that into third man's hands. Leaned back to ramp it, and picked out the fielder 31/29.6 shortish outside off and he's gone! Looked for that late dab again, ended up sending a thin edge into the keeper's gloves 79/3Extras7 (lb 4, w 3)TOTAL147/4 (18.1 Overs, RR: 8.09)Fall of wickets: 1-31 (Robin Uthappa, 4.1 ov), 2-31 (Manish Pandey, 4.4 ov), 3-79 (Suryakumar Yadav, 9.6 ov), 4-144 (Gautam Gambhir, 17.5 ov)
