    0.4 loves that! The length is considerably fuller and that's what does Finch in. Despite three fifties in the lead-up to this game, the batsman is still new at the crease today and he doesn't quite feel ready to move his feet. Bhuvneshwar's inswing exploits that. Zips through bat and pad as Finch attempts an expansive drive and bowls him neck and crop 0/1

    7.2 the large boundaries at Rajkot have made an impact. No mis-hits will fly away tonight. McCullum goes for a slog sweep once he sees the ball tossed up outside off. Made contact rather low on the bat and so ends up as a simple catch for deep midwicket 56/2

    19.2 that's straight up and comes straight down to sit in long-on's hands. It's back of a length, and its the offcutter. Those just haven't arrived on the batsman tonight. Several of them have been caught playing early and its Raina's turn in the final over when he has no choice but to slog. Top edge off the front foot pull, gone 133/6

    9.6 he's fallen to a full toss! A juicy one too, on leg stump, Karthik went for the sweep again and picks out the man at deep square leg to relative perfection. The ball thuds into Bhuvneshwar's hard hands and leaps out, but he collects the rebound safely 74/3

    13.1 had to put a lot of power on the ball, because Sran offered nothing. Bravo whirls his wrists, doesn't bother keeping the ball down despite the big boundaries and a man stationed at deep square leg. Bhuvneshwar takes it comfortably 91/4

    16.5 beautiful, and he knows it. Throws a sly little smirk at the departing batsman. The offcutter is on an inviting length - the length that makes a batsman think he can get under it and slog it away - Jaddu tries it but he is beaten for the lack of pace. The ball then dances past him and topples off stump 117/5

    19.3 and he's on a hat-trick. Takes all the pace off and plants the ball full on off stump, Nath hopes for a six over long-off but his bat face skews open and ends up behind caught at cover 133/7

    19.6 and that's the third to finish off the over. Steyn had to go, and Bhuvi made sure he couldn't go far with a legcutter. Loft down the ground carries only as far as long-on 135/8
