- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR7.3 pinned him on the back foot but lbw appeal is turned down! Bishnoi asks KL to review. This was a skiddy delivery that landed around middle and went right through. Uthappa was caught on the back foot, surprised by the speed it got to him. Hits his front leg, no bat involved, so the only question is whether the googly took the ball down the leg side or not. Ball tracking says that's crashing into middle and leg! Umpire has to change his decision, and that's a second wicket for Bishnoi - first the run out, now this lbw. 84/22.3 massive appeal for lbw and the umpire hasn't reacted, but that doesn't matter! Because Gaikwad has been run out with a direct hit! Bishnoi with the bulls eye with Gaikwad a metre short. This was full on off and Gaikwad missed the flick. Ball hit his pad and rolled away to point and he wanted a single, but Uthappa did not, forcing him to turn back. Either way, whoever was going to run to the batter's end was going to be out with a rocket throw like that. Another failure for Gaikwad. 28/110.1 aw, gone so soon! Moeen stands and attempts to deliver as Avesh hits a good length at good pace... but he's thrashed clean through the wrong line there, flat feet, flatter off stump. Fizzes through his loose mo(w) towards midwicket. A fine cameo ends at the halfway mark 106/318.2 mashed into the night sky, but it doesn't have the legs! That was clobbered through the line, on a good length, seemed to have been timed well enough, but it was all height, not enough distance. Lewis steadies himself well at wide long-on, and pouches the catch! 189/516.2 another massive wipe to leg, and the leg stump is plucked out! A gallop to the pitch, fired in flatter, beaten all ends up and that's a timely strike from the Giants' main man of the night so far 166/419.2 flicked off the legs once more, but Pandey is lurking in the deep and swallows the chance 203/619.3 fires in the yorker, angling in on leg stump... that's a decent appeal but probably doing too much. It's a review either way... No under-edge, so all on ball tracker... ooh, it's hitting leg stump! Very full length, which did the trick, a very brief encounter for Pretorius 203/7Extras14 (b 4, lb 7, w 3)TOTAL210/7 (20 Overs, RR: 10.5)Fall of wickets: 1-28 (Ruturaj Gaikwad, 2.3 ov), 2-84 (Robin Uthappa, 7.3 ov), 3-106 (Moeen Ali, 10.1 ov), 4-166 (Ambati Rayudu, 16.2 ov), 5-189 (Shivam Dube, 18.2 ov), 6-203 (Ravindra Jadeja, 19.2 ov), 7-203 (Dwaine Pretorius, 19.3 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR10.2 over the wicket, a pre-meditated pull, but Pretorius spears the short ball out on a wider line, out comes a steepling top-edge, and a fine running take at short backward square! Rayudu judged that well, watching it over his shoulder all the way. And a key breakthrough comes just after the halfway mark... as in CSK's innings in fact 99/114.4 spirals straight up in the air, and Dhoni takes a cool-as-cucumber catch! Clears the front foot, round the wicket, into the arc, de Kock makes room to drill over the off side, but gets right underneath his stroke, and the keeper calls loud and early. That's a big old breakthrough. Runs on the board looking handy now! 139/311.2 battered at Bravo, who clings on at mid-off! Crashed through the line, clearing the front leg for extra oomph, that is travelling fiercely, but those are good hands, and an even better jog of celebration. Big shift in this chase now! 106/217.2 slower ball, low full toss, launched to the leg-side ... into Jadeja's hands! It was high, it was handsome, but it didn't have the legs it appeared to have. And Bravo is the leading wicket-taker in IPL history! 171/4Extras18 (lb 6, w 12)TOTAL211/4 (19.3 Overs, RR: 10.82)Fall of wickets: 1-99 (KL Rahul, 10.2 ov), 2-106 (Manish Pandey, 11.2 ov), 3-139 (Quinton de Kock, 14.4 ov), 4-171 (Deepak Hooda, 17.2 ov)
