- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR18.6 fullish and outside off, Buttler has a slog at it and plays it on. No celebrations from Sandeep or Bairstow. Parag punches Butter's gloves and sends him off. Top innings from a top white-ball batter 209/32.6 this is much closer, and umpire Gaffney raises his finger. Jasiwal has a chat with Buttler and walks off. Slider from Rashid, fizzes in to ping the pad bang in front of middle. Jaiswal is beaten for both length and pace. He plays back to it and doesn't put bat on ball once again 17/116.4 Samad shows his team-mates how to take the pressure catches. He snags it at the edge of the long-off boundary. Good overhead catch. Fullish and wide of off. Vijay takes it away from Samson's swinging arc. The batter looks to pump it through the line, but can only slice it off the bottom part 167/2Extras14 (lb 5, nb 1, w 8)TOTAL220/3 (20 Overs, RR: 11)Fall of wickets: 1-17 (Yashasvi Jaiswal, 2.6 ov), 2-167 (Sanju Samson, 16.4 ov), 3-209 (Jos Buttler, 18.6 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR6.1 bowled 'im! Was a slower one from Mustafizur. On the fuller side around middle and leg, Pandey went for the flick but ended up playing early. The ball hit the pads before disturbing the stumps 57/17.6 Caught by debutant Anuj Rawat at long-on. Slower legbreak from Tewatia, spins away from Bairstow. Flat and shapes away from the batter, who gets into a sweeping position and ends up dragging the ball to Rawat who is a keeper at Delhi 70/212.5 Holes out to Morris at deep midwicket. First wicket for Tyagi in IPL 2021 and he has taken out Williamson. Slower short ball into the pitch and the line is outside off. The pull was on, but Williamson hits it straight to the outfielder 105/410.4 Miller runs in from long-on and takes this skier. Banged into the pitch and outside off, offcutter from Morris. Vijay rocks into a back-foot pull and splices it to another South African - Miller 85/316.6 Jadhav plays back and is castled. On-pace full ball, nips into middle. Jadhav slogs and misses. Morris hits the middle stump 142/714.2 offcutter at 119.2ks outside off, sliced straight to extra-cover. Whippy change-up from Mustafizur, Nabi looks to loft down the ground. Instead, he miscues it to Rawat again 127/516.3 Rawat runs back and holds onto his third catch even as the ball swirls away from his reach. He runs back from extra-cover and takes it over his shoulder before diving into the ground. Slower cutter outside off, Samad can only sky it to the debutant 142/617.2 Mustafizur rolls out another offcutter. He now has Rashid holing out to long-off. It was too full, but the lack of pace does Rashid in. He slogs and slices it to Morris 143/8Extras8 (lb 1, w 7)TOTAL165/8 (20 Overs, RR: 8.25)Did not bat: KK AhmedFall of wickets: 1-57 (Manish Pandey, 6.1 ov), 2-70 (Jonny Bairstow, 7.6 ov), 3-85 (Vijay Shankar, 10.4 ov), 4-105 (Kane Williamson, 12.5 ov), 5-127 (Mohammad Nabi, 14.2 ov), 6-142 (Abdul Samad, 16.3 ov), 7-142 (Kedar Jadhav, 16.6 ov), 8-143 (Rashid Khan, 17.2 ov)
