141/7. Would that be enough in a high-pressure and high-stakes game? Brevis did well to pull them out of a rut and scored a brilliant half-century but there is not much to speak of as far as the batting card is concerned. Washington bowled very few bad balls, stemmed the run flow effectively in first 10 overs and found the right pace to ball on this wicket. It was a great concerted bowling effort. With Pollard missing, MI needed Pooran to step up to the plate but he chewed a couple of dots and then lost his wicket as he tried to break free. They won't be too delighted with this total but they have some firepower in their bowling line-up to create some panic in Freedom ranks. Trent Boult needs to replicate his last game performance where he was on fire and Rashid Khan must nail his legspinners and googlies to make this a close affair

Netravalkar to Rashid Khan, OUT, Ball thunders into the front pad elicits a appeal and up goes the finger, thumps him low on the pad beating his sweep and that's a pretty straightforward decision for the umpire

Rashid Khan lbw b Netravalkar 2 (5b 0x4 0x6) SR: 40.00

Netravalkar to Rashid Khan, 1 run, Spears in a yorker on sixth stump line outside off, attacks it hauls it away to sweeper, thinking about a second but the throw is sharp, Rashid ball watching but not his teammate and Taylor was watching the ball and not aware that Rashid was almost halfway down the pitch, anyway no damage done in the end
