5:23pm The Titans looked good for somewhere close to 180-190 when Miller and Pandya were in the middle. Pandya scored his third successive fifty and looked in sublime touch. But once Mavi and Southee came back at the death, especially the former with his offcutters, runs came at a premium for the Titans batters. What that meant was a flurry of wickets as it is not a surface where a new batter can get going right away. It is a below-par score from the looks of it. The Knight Riders' batting hasn't been the most fluent one. An exciting chase in the offing. Vishal will kick us off shortly.
5:19pm Four wickets in the final over and six in the last 17 balls - it was a crash-landing of sorts from Gujarat Titans.
Here's Andre Russell: Similar to last year playing against Chennai where I bowled well. I was thinking about the execution and had 160 in my mind. I am looking to take the long boundary on but I hope these guys don't give me the chance. The wicket is gripping a bit and the cutter's coming handy. We should use the experience of the first innings. Once we get a good six overs and we should be good. I owe Rinku a dinner, he doesn't drink!
