    2.1 taken at short fine leg! Coetzee first kept his eyes on the ball, which went very high up, for a long time, and then just about held on to it while losing his balance and tumbling to the ground. He also had to move a few steps to his left, as Roy had a big hoick at this length ball on the stumps, but was beaten by the change of pace by Zia. His struggle finally ends 4/1
    2.5 bowled him! Zia removes both of LAKR's openers in the space of four balls. Narine is standing after making a bit of room, and with his front leg out of the way. Zia fires in a yorker bang on middle, and even as Narine looks to squeeze it out, he brings the bat down pretty late. By then, the ball has struck the middle of middle stump 5/2
    19.2 Edged behind! Stoinis goes back of a length, while sticking to that very wide line. Chand throws his bat at it, but gets a thick edge and Conway does the rest. Fantastic knock from Chand comes to an end 150/7
    6.4 lofted to mid-off! Du Plessis takes it in front of his chest with a reverse cup, as Shakib chipped this length ball angling into him. He presented the full face of the bat at this, but couldn't time it entirely well 44/3
    10.3 Stoinis strikes back! This is on a full length around off and Nitish chips it to wide long-on. He hit two sixes on the trot, but fails to clear the fielder this time. Timely strike for TSK! 78/4
    13.2 Now, that's a screamer! That was hit back at him, hard! Hardie gets his hands up instinctively as Miller spanks this full ball back at him. It goes through his arms and hits him around the hips, but he holds on on the follow through as he falls over. That's Miller gone cheaply, a huge wicket for the Super Kings! 95/5
    14.2 What's happened here? Russell has smashed his own stumps! It's a full delivery outside off and Russell was shaping to hit it late, but crashes his bat onto the stumps. Texas Super Kings will be feeling very lucky there, because Dre Russ was looking dangerous! 106/6

    13.2 Knocked over! Instant impact from Ali Khan! Cross-seam delivery on a length outside off from wide of the crease pitches and seams in past the inside edge. Conway didn't get near that. Ali Khan is pumped, and that's an important wicket at this stage 102/3
    4.3 scooped to midwicket of all places! The ball takes the toe end of the bat, and balloons up for a simple catch. Du Plessis hand shaped to scoop pretty early, and the bowler went on the shorter side of a length on middle. The length, anyway, seemed pretty short to facilitate that shot 30/1
    8.5 given caught behind! Hardie walks off after what seemed like an almost inaudible edge. Shakib bowled this on a length and around fifth stump, going with a horizontal seam while also slowing it down. Hardie went for the slash, but got a thin outside edge to the keeper, who was quick to react 64/2
    13.5 What a screamer! Derone Davis has taken a blinder here. Dug in short outside off, Tromp went to ramp and Davis was moving to his left from deep third. He dives and tries to take it reverse-cupped in front of his face, but the ball pops out of his hands. But as he lands, he manages to grab it at a second go with his right hand. That's excellent athleticism, and reflexes. And Joshua Tromp, like Portugal in the Euros, is out 103/4
    14.6 Big appeal, and up goes the finger! Stoinis reviews, though. Narine with an arm ball that pitches on a length around off and goes with the angle. Stoinis doesn't seem to get his bat down in time and is hit on the knee roll of his front pad. And that is three reds as per DRS, and Stoinis has to go! Stoinis struggles against Narine, and the LAKR skipper gets his man yet again! 107/6
    13.6 Taken at slip! Ali Khan has two in two balls, and three in the over! He is running through Texas Super Kings here! Length ball outside off jags away and Milind jabs at it. He gets a thick edge and Dre Russ is sharp at slip. Ali Khan was introduced only in the 14th over, and what a difference he has made to this game in the space of six balls! 103/5

    16.4 Chopped on! Spencer Johnson gets his second. Back of length delivery angled across Coetzee, who tries to play the late cut, but gets a bottom edge onto the stumps. LAKR inch closer to victory, words you'd not have imagined hearing three overs back! 115/7
    17.2 Ali Khan gets his fourth! Mohsin miscues it as he looks for a big swing. Hits the bat high and David Miller takes it coming in from long-off 120/8
