Here's Brydon Carse: Happy with the team's performance. We stuck to the plans despite the two-paced wicket. As a bowling group, we did really well. We stuck to our original plan from the beginning. We wanted to bowl that back of a length balls. We had a slow start, but we have gelled as a team over the last two games. Hope we will chase this score down.

7.09pm That's as disciplined a bowling performance that you will see from a side. Sunrisers stuck to a plan right from the start and were relentless all the way through. It is a two-paced surface, no doubt, but the Royals batters did not get going at all. Jos Buttler fell early after a couple of false shots before Jason Roy departed to a wild slog. Wihan Lubbe was cleaned up by Carse for 28 while Morgan and Miller came and went. A lot of the batters got starts but no one really carried on. Carse, Markram and Van der Merwe all picked two wickets as Royals were restricted to 127. Will it be an easier chase for Sunrisers this time around? Join Alan in a bit to find out.

Jansen to Fortuin, 2 runs, Slower short of a length ball that is biffed to long on. They had to get back for a second and Fortuin makes it with a full-length dive with the throw from the deep hitting him.

Jansen to Fortuin, no run, Shuffles well across to the off stump and misses the scoop as Jansen bangs this one short outside the leg stump line. Not called a wide. Fortuin is perplexed at the call. I felt it was a fair call.

Jansen to Codi Yusuf, 1 run, Slower back of a length ball outside off. He opens the face of his blade to deep third.

Jansen to Fortuin, 1 leg bye, Pins him on the helmet and Fortuin immediately reacts with an 'ohh!' That actually hit him on the neck. Was the slower short of a length ball and that is what caused Fortuin to miss the pull. The physio is out as the batter removes his helmet. All good, though.

Jansen to Fortuin, 1 wide, Slower back of a length ball but that is straying just past leg even as the batter attempts the pull.

Magala to Fortuin, no run, Tries his hand at the scoop now, by scuffling well across his off stump. But. Magala is a smart campaigner. Gets it full just outside off and the batter misses. No boundaries off Magala's four overs. Super stuff! Magala had bowled that last ball from way behind the stumps

Magala to Codi Yusuf, 1 run, Oh, another quick run and a direct hit would have sent the batter packing. Length outside off, he pushes to cover and sets off. Erwee steadies himself and has a shy at the non-striker's end, but misses.

Magala to Codi Yusuf, 4 leg byes, Full slanting down leg. He gets hit on the boot, and the ball speeds away past the keeper and short fine. Oh, hang on, Sunrisers have reviewed. The original decision is not out and that stands with the ball clearly pitching outside leg.
