- BATSMENRB4s6sSR2.6 short, wide again, and Tripathi fails to keep the cut down. However, this has come right out of the screws, but it can't go past Surya Kumar Yadav at point. Smart catch, high to his left. Even Boult is impressed 18/17.3 Gill takes a risk after playing 22 balls for 21 runs, and holes out. Chahar is not giving him the swinging length, but the strike-rate pressure on Gill shows as he goes for this regardless. Looks to hit a six over long-on, but because he is not close to the pitch of the ball, he gets no power in this. Pollard takes an easy catch at long-on 42/35.3 good comeback from Coulter-Nile. The short-ball plan gets Rana again. Almost as if you can add an extra "i" to his name. He did play this one like the more illustrious Raina does. Looks to get inside the line of this bounce to try to help it along to fine leg but all he manages to do is, glove it through to de Kock 33/27.4 back-to-back. Kathik has played on a spinner again. And once again it is a wide legbreak. Last game it was Chahal, this game it is Chahar. One leggie learning from the other? Slow and wide, Karthik looks to lap it regardless, and only ends up showing the ball the way to his own wicket 42/410.4 just like that, another bowling change and plan has been executed perfectly. Russell has been backing away to open up the off side, but Bumrah now gives him a sharp bouncer. He has nowhere to go, and looks to duck out of the way. The ball, though, follows his bat and lobs up for an easy catch. Just too good from Bumrah 61/5Extras7 (lb 2, w 5)TOTAL148/5 (20 Overs, RR: 7.4)Fall of wickets: 1-18 (Rahul Tripathi, 2.6 ov), 2-33 (Nitish Rana, 5.3 ov), 3-42 (Shubman Gill, 7.3 ov), 4-42 (Dinesh Karthik, 7.4 ov), 5-61 (Andre Russell, 10.4 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR10.3 finally a wicket for KKR. Mavi comes back after that disdainful four. This is full, just outside off, Sharma plays for the angle, but it actually pitches and seams away to take the outside edge 94/113.3 he has swept this onto his own wicket. Varun bowls a full and wide carrom ball, Yadav tries the big sweep, and gets a meaty bottom edge onto the off stump 111/2Extras5 (lb 5)TOTAL149/2 (16.5 Overs, RR: 8.85)Fall of wickets: 1-94 (Rohit Sharma, 10.3 ov), 2-111 (Suryakumar Yadav, 13.3 ov)
