    7.2 knocks out leg stump and belts out a victory cry! Gill pretty static in his stance outside leg stump. Looks like he was trying to open up the off side. It's a slider on a good length, and he swishes for the initial line as it beats the inside edge 53/1
    17.1 slammed high up and taken at long-on. Full offcutter at off stump. Rana looks for the slog and is done by the pace. Gets a nice connection on it but it's all elevation. And it looks like that swerves on Curran late in its path because he's taken it a couple of inches out to his right and at waist height. These guys train to take catches as close to the body as possible so that must have changed path. Good take to end a good innings 137/4
    8.3 taken at deep midwicket. Tosses this up slowly at a middle and leg line. He's hitting into the longer side. And he can't clear the fielder with the slog. Floats nicely out to Jadeja who takes it inisde the line 60/2
    12.5 top edge out to deep square. Good length ball gets big on him as he checks himself on the attempted sweep. Floats out gently for Rayudu 93/3
    19.2 taken at long-off. Full slower ball wide outside off. Walks into the off side this time and is still forced to reach out. Wants to loft over extra cover but gets it only a couple of yards to long-off's right 167/5

    7.3 taken at long-on. A tame slog sweep attempte. A hit out attempt. Wasn't picking him at all. A length ball outside off that grips and goes away from the attempted slog sweep. Sends it high up and it's taken well inside 50/1
    17.2 splits middle and off stump! It's a length ball angled into the stumps. He drops his right shoulder and gets low to try and ramp this over short fine, but that has slid onto the stumps from under the bat. Shakes his head as he walks off 140/4
    13.4 can't beat mid-off this time. Short and wide from Cummins this time. He runs down the pitch and wants to flat-bat it over the infield. But it's gotten too steep for control and it's about throat height for the fielder there 118/2
    14.4 takes out leg stump! Oh he's burst through MS Dhoni's defences after softening him up the last two balls. Proper dominance, those last three balls. This is quick, and it's sliding into Dhoni who is hurriedly skipping into the leg side to try and make room and stab this through square leg off the back foot. Plays all over it and the stump is well and truly tonked. Bowled by Varun C for the second time this season 121/3
