- BATSMENRB4s6sSR2.1 starts with a full ball outside off, and Saha's innings comes to an end with another massive swipe. Doesn't connect cleanly this time, and skies it high to Mandeep at mid-on 34/14.2 slower ball outside off, and Vohra doesn't get hold of the attempted loft over long-off, ends up chipping it straight into the fielder's hands 50/24.4 and he's gone! That was another crisply hit pull, but it was in the air and he picked out the man at deep midwicket 54/35.4 gone. Saw Miller coming down the track and slid it flat and wide outside off. Quick work from DK as well, collects and has the bails off before Miller can turn and try to regain his crease 71/48.5 bowled. Bailey moved a long way across to try and lap-sweep, and Chahal beats him with a quicker one and hits his leg stump 99/59.3 another wide and full ball. Gurkeerat tries to make room and hit over cover, only manages a thick edge that Karthik takes well. Makes it look simple, but good footwork to move quickly to his right 102/6Extras4 (lb 1, w 3)TOTAL106/6 (10 Overs, RR: 10.6)Fall of wickets: 1-34 (Wriddhiman Saha, 2.1 ov), 2-50 (Manan Vohra, 4.2 ov), 3-54 (Glenn Maxwell, 4.4 ov), 4-71 (David Miller, 5.4 ov), 5-99 (George Bailey, 8.5 ov), 6-102 (Gurkeerat Singh Mann, 9.3 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR4.4 bouncer and he's taken out Gayle! It was a well-directed ball, over Gayle's left shoulder. Not an easy place to pull from, and he only got a thin edge through to the keeper 44/22.6 he's struck. It wasn't a great ball, a length ball wide outside off, but it didn't quite come on for the cover drive and Kohli's bottom hand took over, and he ended up chopping it onto his stumps 33/16.4 AB's gone! it's fired flat towards leg stump and AB went for the sweep, looking to hit over short fine leg, but he simply didn't middle it and popped a simple catch to the fielder, off the top-edge 67/38.4 again it's flat and quick, but it's shorter, and angled into the batsman's body to cramp him for room. Goes for the pull, gets it high on the bat, and holes out to long-on 77/57.5 very full on middle stump, and DK tried to play a straight-bat, bottom-hand shovel to get under the ball and get elevation. He managed this, but not the distance, and the skier dropped gently into long-on's hands 74/49.5 another slower ball on off stump. Sarfaraz makes room to hit over cover, ends up slicing it high in the air, straight to third man 83/6Extras8 (lb 5, nb 1, w 2)TOTAL84/6 (10 Overs, RR: 8.4)Fall of wickets: 1-33 (Virat Kohli, 2.6 ov), 2-44 (Chris Gayle, 4.4 ov), 3-67 (AB de Villiers, 6.4 ov), 4-74 (Dinesh Karthik, 7.5 ov), 5-77 (Mandeep Singh, 8.4 ov), 6-83 (Sarfaraz Khan, 9.5 ov)
