    3.6 Bashed straight to Phillips at cover! What have you done, Seifert? Was a nothing ball, really, outside off and lots of width off a good length. But the ball died just a little with its bounce off the pitch. Seifert reaches for the cut and times it to perfection. Perfectly to Phillips, that is... 32/3
    0.4 Rahane's gone for it, and consequently, he's gone.. The ball was full and right outside off. Rahane goes for a lofted drive right down the ground. Except he doesn't middle this - the swing got the better of him - so there's a top edge that looms in the air forever, then lands right in Rabada's hands near mid-on 5/1
    1.6 A peach from Rabada rips out Raghuvanshi! Was on a good length, and then swings away just a little from outside off. Raghuvanshi goes for a tentative poke away from his body and edges this to the keeper 21/2
    19.6 gone!! Rashid gets Green off the last ball. KKR are bowled out for 180. Rashid threw this on a length, and pretty wide of off. Green went reaching out and slashing, but got a top edge to Buttler 180/10
    10.6 from 146kph to 107kph - and a wicket arrives. From the back of the hand from Ashok, who bowls on ten shorter side of a length just outside off. Powell has a big heave by reaching out - he may have been beaten by the lack of pace - and ends up skying the ball really high. Siraj, from long-on, does well to concentrate and keep his eye on it as he moves forward. He ends up taking it a good few steps forward 87/4
    14.5 Wow, Prasidh and co, and the umpire, heard an outside edge, leaving me confused!! There's a reason why I'm not an umpire!! Short of a length from Prasidh, and on off at 142kph. The ball seams away, and Anukul looks to loft hard. But the ball takes a thin outside edge to Buttler, and Prasidh is pumped up before the umpire raises his finger 147/5
    15.1 a faint outside edge again, and Rinku is done. Buttler and Rabada went up as soon as the ball left the bat. It was on a short of a length just outside off, even as the ball shaped away a little. Rinku went lofting but his front foot was around middle or leg. So he ended up playing away from his body, and got a thin edge 148/6
    16.3 taken at long-on!! Ashok gets one off the slower ball again. And the fielder, yet again, is Siraj. Ashok floats this at just 105kph, and goes on a length around sixth or seventh stump. Raman can't wait for the ball to arrive, and has a huge heave at it to go across the line. He ends up ballooning the ball for Siraj, who's at long-on, and gets across to his right to grab it 165/7
    17.3 well taken by Phillips - the best man on the park!! He was at wide backward point, if ever there was such a position. And he moved well to his left, and ended up close to deep-backward point, all the while keeping his eyes on the ball. He slid and completed the catch, as Narine went for a slice off this fullish ball around off 166/8
    18.2 and Tyagi is run-out!! Green simply looks down and takes off, and makes it to the keeper's end. By then, though, Tyagi has missed his attempted clip at this inswinging yorker which arrives outside leg. Buttler is alert to Tyagi remaining rooted at the crease, and throws the ball back to Prasidh, who clips the bails off at his end 173/9

    5.1 Sudharsan tries to pull this one, but it's on the leg stump line and cramps him midway through that shot. He has to hunch to hit that from quite low, and it's gone straight to backward square leg 57/1
    16.6 amazing catch by Green!! Gill falls on 86 after a tumbling take by the tallest man on the field. Green is at deep third, and he moves and dives forward to take it barely off the ground. Gill walks off livid with himself. Arora kept firing it full and a little wide of off, and this time Gill couldn't find the gap. He went slicing to go through the line, and sliced it aerially to deep third. A shorter fielder there, and you think Gill may have survived 158/4
    9.1 VC has got 'is man! Floated this in a little too full, but maybe it played in his favour. Buttler goes for the cross-batted hoick towards long-on. But the googly meant Buttler misread both the line as well as his ability to get under this delivery. Hits it too flat and finds the fielder 95/2
    14.3 finds fine leg!! A wicket out of nowhere, you'd think. Washy looked in control in his brief outing so far, but this time pulls straight to the fielder. Varun angles this in, and bowls short at Washy again. Washy goes ahead with the pull, but doesn't clear the boundary 141/3
    19.1 got him!! Is there drama left yet?! Phillips finds Rinku at deep midwicket. Short delivery from Raman, and slightly wide of off. Phillips opens his stance and goes for the pull by looking to ride the bounce, only for him to get off the top half of the bat 177/5
